Verzegnis - Monte Alt - Stavoli Chiampomano

The route starts in Chiaicis, at the parking lot next to the road. Follow the signs for Lake Verzegnis: a short, steep descent, a bridge over the lake, and a steep paved climb. Once you reach the top of the hill, continue straight ahead on the paved road at the intersection, then follow the hairpin turn to the left downhill. As the climb resumes, the road becomes a dirt road; after an initial section that has been maintained, it turns into a rough, overgrown mule track. When you reach the summit of Monte Alz, you can no longer continue on this route; instead, take a trail that climbs a few meters into the woods on the left. Ride a short flat section, and then the S1/S2 single-track trail begins deep in the woods—unmarked on maps but mostly rideable.

You’ll emerge onto the paved road taken on the way there and head back up to the first intersection. Here, turn left, still on asphalt, and climb toward the Verzegnis-Sella Chianzutan provincial road; descend along it until just past a hairpin turn, then take the small paved road on the left toward Stavolo Chiampomano. Ride on asphalt up a steep incline through the woods to Stavolo, then continue on the dirt road to the left and descend back onto the asphalt. You’ll rejoin the descent from Sella Chianzutan near Chiaicis, and after 1 km, you can give your legs a rest.

20% paved–80% dirt, moderately challenging, single track S1/S2.
