Rifugio Payer - Tabarettascharte
Itinerary with fantastic views, right below Ortles, and very fun trails. At the same time, however, reserved for experts because of the great difficulty and exposed trails, where you have to be very careful and to the many uphill bike sections.
From Gomagoi you go up on asphalt to Solda. Before reaching the village you climb right on the very steep forest road, then on the trail to the Tabaretta hut, the first part pedaled then pushing. After the hut push and shoulder to the Bear Pass.
From here stretch not long but very exposed with safety wire cable, spectacular, to fork for descent. Ascent to Payer with bike on shoulder and rest in hut with excellent strudel. From here breathtaking descent with superb views on trail 19 to Trafoi, from the fork at elevation 2900 almost all bikeable. Beware of the junction to follow to trail 19a, this trail is quite complicated due to numerous landslides, with bikes to be carried by hand, and some very steep and technical sections. On the other hand, you get to the car all on trail.
Be careful, many hikers from Solda go up to the Payer. Best to go up very early to avoid being in traffic with your bike on your back on the narrow trail. On the 19a trail, on the other hand, almost no one. However, the most fun trail down to the valley is still trail 19 to Trafoi
