The Purple Trail is ideal for those who like, after the ascent, to have fun on the descent with Trails that alternate between “flow” dirt sections and somewhat more technical rock passages but without high technical difficulties for those used to trails of this type, not to be underestimated on the other hand for those who are not too experienced in descent technique. The trails are all of Grade of Difficulty Blue on the IMBA scale with some short passages of difficulty Red
Departure from the Pieve di Sorano in the direction of Filattiera Paese, Gigliana and Biglio. Continue until you reach the Madonnina di Bosta, the highest point of the itinerary as well as our turning point. From here, you return to the valley using the beautiful singles-tracks of the “Vecchio Enry”, “Fil di Cresta”, “Renzhoffer”, “Cà di Piola”; ancient paths that were once precious links between countries and today are a marvel for our wheels.
TRAILS CAN BE “RAIDED” EVEN WITHOUT CROSSING THE PURPLE RING,Number 6
