Lake Trail da Piamaggio

Nice enduro hike along the LakeTrail trail recently opened by Team Bomba, but starting from Piamaggio. Climb to the Croce dell'Alpe for the quiet dirt road and at the Croce keep left toward Monte Oggioli; before reaching the summit for the hard climb take a right trail down to the Passo del Turchino. Flowing and driven trail in the well-cleaned forest with a few more technical but still very easy passages. At the pass turn right for a short asphalt section before taking the Lake Trail which is well marked by trail markers. Quick descent to Castel dell'Alpe, at times more technical and rocky at times very flowy to the lake. Peripse the lake and then climb in the woods (some technical sections) to Ca Galeazzi and then by secondary roads to Madonna dei Fornelli.

Here follow the trail markers or cai 929 to Pian dei Torli and then by forestry/secondary roads to the Rioletta refuge. New hard climb and at Ca delle Guardie you join the via degli Dei that you follow for a good stretch with several ups and downs to Passeggere. Here you follow the 735 (or the Bomba trail markers) to Covigliaio Pass (again several ups and downs). From the pass a nice single track in the woods to Passo del Turchino. You retrace uphill a stretch made on the outward journey but then detach yourself by staying on a lower trail to Croce dell'Alpe. Here you take the nice Fun Turn trail that descends to Piamaggio; smooth track with fun wide switchbacks, but no shortage of more technical passages on rock and rock. Downstream by transfer roads you return to Piamaggio.
