Dolomiti Paganella Bike con i nuovi Interstellar e Supernatural
We start in Fai with a couple of warm-up runs on Peter Pan, a fairly flowing trail with lots of jumps and parabolics. We go further up using the second chairlift from Fai and go on the new Supernatural, a different trail than usual with narrow banked turns, rocky bottom and lots of obstacles to pump. The terrain of the second part still has to settle, in case of wet weather you will make mud.
Thus we arrive at the mouth of the classic Hust n' Flow w Willy Wonka, easy and fun, which takes us to Andalo. Here we take the easier variation to get to Molveno without doing the Secret Trail, that is, we follow the trail that, on the orographic left of the valley, eventually turns into a dirt road that takes us to the lake. Short asphalt climb to catch the cable car, after which we board the chairlift to get to the highest point in the Molveno area and descend the very easy but scenic Big Hero, followed by the more fun Blade Runner, with lots of banks and a few jumps. At the end of this trail we continue to descend on the relatively new Matrix, which is fast and has parabolics to go all the way down, until we reach the road that connects Molveno to Andalo. We turn left and pedal to Andalo practically flat, take the cable car up the mountain, descend a short distance and take the chairlift to Cima Paganella. Panormamic photo op. If you go to Rifugio la Roda, besides eating well, you can see all of Garda if the day is clear.
Now we walk another new trail, Interstellar. This one, like the Supernatural, is also different from the rest you find in the bike park, because it was built with material found on site, that is, several banks are made with boulders driven into the ground. The curves are tight but you get into a good rhythm. We climb to the entrance of the Supernatural, of which we retrace the first segment, and then jump onto the most technical trail of the day, the Jade Line. A "natural" trail full of boulders, roots, rock gardens. If wet it is very challenging. You will come back nice and pumped and tired to Fai.
