Monte Prana

The trail from Monte Prana, just south of Massa, feels like an endless flow ride and is a real surprise in this otherwise rugged terrain.

Description

To reach the legendary downhill trail on Monte Prana, ride from Camaiore all the way around the mountain to reach the trailhead from the north. The first 500 meters of elevation gain follow the main road at first, then continue along a quiet mountain road to Passo del Lucese. Here, turn left to cover the remaining 350 meters of elevation gain to Focetta di San Vincenzo. The start continues along a narrow road, which then turns into a gravel path before the climb ends on a trail at the very end. Focetta di San Vincenzo is the starting point of the descent. If you’d like, you can tackle the summit on foot.

The descent is quickly explained: The trail seems to go on forever down the west and south sides of Monte Prana to Camaiore, interrupted only once by a short stretch of concrete road. The rest offers pure trail magic at difficulty level S2. A few short uphill sections prevent you from getting completely carried away by the riding. This trail is a first-rate thrill ride, but it ends 300 meters above the starting point. This final section runs on asphalt, which in no way detracts from the overall experience.
