Equipment

Wearing the helmet is mandatory and strongly advised to wear protections. Make sure you have enough water with you and a charged, switched on device to call rescue (just in case).

Safety instructions

Given its nature, the trail can change after weather happenings and season changes. Always pay attention.


Directions
The trails of the Orco-Vezzi area are best reachable either by bike from Nato Base or from the town of Orco.

Getting to Nato Base: reachable from the E80 highway accessing Orco Feglino, then drive north on the SP23 until the windmills under the Base.

Getting to Orco: reachable from the E80 highway accessing Orco Feglino, then drive south on the SP27 and then on the Via Provinciale Regione Brea.

Public transportation
Public transport in the area doesn't allow bikes on board. You'll be able to rely on a lift service bound to the Region.

Parking
Given how the trails on the Orco-Vezzi area are spread, we suggest, anyway, to rely on official shuttle companies. Visit this page for further info.
