Santa Domenica di Ricadi

Itinerary for bikers on vacation on the Coast of the Gods, who want to take a fun and scenic ride, starting from Santa Domenica di Ricadi, near Tropea. It starts uphill, taking the road that passes through Ciaramiti. It is a paved road but pleasant even on mtb, immersed in the countryside. Once in Ciaramiti, you continue to climb in the direction of Monte Poro, skirting the territory of the municipality of Caria and crossing Brattirò. Descending at an altitude of 610 meters, on Monte Poro, turn left and take the dirt road that leads to Drapia. It is a dirt road, about 4 km downhill, ending in very narrow hairpin bends. When you get to Drapia, you take the way back, climb a little and follow the road from Ciaramiti back to the starting point.

This is a quick ride, which is easily done in 90 minutes, but it deserves to be done slowly for the views you have a chance to photograph.
