Monte Cullar
Description
The route over Monte Cullar begins below Bevorchians in Val Aupa. Initially on asphalt and later on gravel, the route climbs steadily for a few meters at a moderate gradient up to Forca Griffon. At Forca Griffon, you push or pedal up a historic path past the Ricovero Casera Forchiutta. The route then continues on an Alpini trail to Monte Cullar. It should be noted that the end of the route is at the stables. It is not possible to climb or descend Monte Cullar/summit area by bike, as these sections are partially secured by ropes. However, the summit should definitely be visited on foot. From this point, you have a fantastic panorama and a perfect view of the Carnic Alps and the heart of Friuli.
The descent begins at the top of the passages. However, the bike still has to be pushed in sections before you finally reach increasingly rideable terrain and a trail with difficulty level S2. This is combined with flowing sections and is ridden up to Casera Palis di Lius. The route continues at the same pace downhill through the beech forests. Difficulty level S3 is reached here in places and then levels off between S2 and S3. At Torrente Aupa in Val Aupa, the route rejoins the main road and rolls relaxedly back to the starting point.

Attention who follows the track! See Map at 1550 hm take the trail around the mountain. Only masochists take the bike to the traverse below the summit as described. From 1550 m upwards, torture in a steep, partly overgrown grassy passage, crossing then through a tunnel, then exposed with a steep slope and then a rockfall-endangered gravel journey 50 m downhill to ride about 100 m of trail? This description is negligent and definitely dangerous. Make a bike depot at the junction, walk up, because the view is great and then follow the trail around the mountain. The trail is beautiful, but superlatives are apparently a must...in our opinion there are more beautiful ones.
Fortunately, we still had a great day :-)
How the trail changes in the area is difficult - similar to Monte Brizzia and Forc. Nurvienulis - today a large part is not rideable.... Nevertheless, I'm glad that the day was still good :-)
Our BnB is located about 60 minutes by bike from the starting point of this tour and directly on the trail area of Gemona of Friuli.
