Monte Caina

Trek Remedy 2018

The Monte Caina is something like the little brother of the Monte Grappa with similar mountain bike characteristics: Ascent on a paved mountain road, descent in serpentine mode. On Monte Caina, however, the bends are tighter, requiring good cornering technique with the occasional turn.

Description

The tour starts in the center of Bassano. You roll out of town on country roads and then climb up to Valrovina on routes with little traffic. There is a short stretch of gravel road here before you get back on tarmac at Pradipaldo. The ascent continues unabated along mountain roads with little traffic up to the highest point of Monte Caina. The inconspicuous summit with the statue of the Madonna is the starting point for the descent. This leads in serpentine mode through the dense forest of Campese. The trail is fast and flowing, if it weren't for the many hairpin bends. Some of them can be rolled through with good riding technique, while others require you to shift the rear wheel. Over 800 meters in altitude are "destroyed" in this way until you reach the banks of the Fiume Brenta at Campese. You follow the course of the river on the left bank back to Bassano, first on a paved cycle path, then again on a first-class single trail just before the center of Bassano.
