Tirli Trail-Tour
Description
The small village of Pian d'Alma lies between the northern and southern parts of the hill range, where you can start the tour or meet up with a local shuttle provider. The first ascent is made on the road to Tirli, crossing the beautifully situated village and climbing a few more meters in altitude on a small road. At a turning point, the "Quercia Numerata" begins, a fun and mostly flowing super trail that can be ridden mostly on grippy forest soil and leads to the road to Grilli.
Follow this road for a while and then turn left onto a cart track, which later becomes narrower and leads slightly uphill into the valley below Caldana. The route continues slightly uphill on a forest road to Campo Orsi, where you turn left and tackle the steep ascent to Tirli. The last section is familiar from the first climb, but this time the last, very steep part up to the antenna is on the agenda. "Vallette" is the name given to the much more challenging and sometimes rough descent, which ends at the southern access road to Tirli.
On this pleasantly ascending road, you reach Tirli again. At the end of the village, ride right to the sports field, where two trails lead back down into the valley at Pian d'Alma. "Fast and Furious" forms the flowing conclusion to this trail tour, and those who want to challenge themselves again can ride down into the valley via the "Soccer Line" trail. The starting point can be reached via a road on the valley floor.
Tip: The tour can easily be ridden as a shuttle tour, with only a few meters of altitude to conquer under your own steam.

Great ride with the typical trails—sometimes flowing, sometimes rocky. Below the antenna mast, the track is apparently outdated. It’s better to skip the 20-meter push climb and turn directly onto the visible trail. After about 300 to 400 meters, the trail rejoins the original route. The variant shown here is apparently no longer ridden, but it’s only a short stretch.
Ridden on May 7, 2026. On both the Quercia Numerata and Fast & Furious trails, the steeper sections have become somewhat eroded (making them rocky and root-laden) and are challenging compared to the flowing forest floor trails. We didn’t find the start of the second climb right away (forestry machines were at work) and it was pretty wet after rain. So we went up the paved road and skipped the second descent (Vallette). Several restaurants in Tirli invite you to stop for a bite. Tip: Bring a bell; we spotted wild boars several times.
Great trail tour, highly recommended because the singletrail descents in the forest are nice and flowy, with some more technical sections (stones, a few roots)! The uphills are bearable and the order of the tour is also great, because the last one (near Ampio) then follows a paved road again, before the third descent (Fast or Furios Trail) at the end takes you back to the starting point (easily doable from Punta Ala).
