Bicycle touring along the Adige plain

The protagonists of the route are the city of Trento and the valley crossed by the Adige River, along whose banks a dense network of bicycle paths, picturesque white roads surrounded by nature, the discovery of characteristic villages and passages in the history of the Via Claudia Augusta, the ancient Roman road, unfold.

It starts from Piazza Duomo in Trento, takes Via Belenzani and reaches Piazza Dante. The route circles the square and then, taking the overpass beside the bus station, leads along the Adige River heading south. It continues through the Albere district with the MUSE and the architecture designed by Renzo Piano and then takes Via Ghiaie, passes the traffic circle and continues along Via al Desert. Continue south crossing the bridge and entering the built-up area of Ravina and then straight ahead along the SP 90 right Adige towards Romagnano and Aldeno.

Once in Aldeno about 100 meters from the elementary school is the entrance to the unpaved dirt road that crosses the countryside of Aldeno and approaches the Adige River. You then begin the route back toward Trento (northbound) by flanking the banks of the river.

At the height of Mattarello cross the bridge that leads to the town and take the Adige Valley cycle path in a northerly direction.

Follow the cycle path to the Ravina bridge, then cross the bridge and continue on the cycle path to the mouth of the Avisio River in Lavis. Cross the Avisio River and continue on the bicycle path to the bridge at Nave San Rocco.

You then take the underpass and begin the return journey toward Trento, passing through the village of Nave San Felice and then along the Via Claudia Augusta. The route passes through secondary country roads, crosses the built-up area of Pressano and comes out in the historic center of Lavis. From San Lazzaro begins the ascent that leads to Meano and then cuts through the Argentario mountain halfway up, connecting the village of Meano to Martignano. Once in Martignano, continue toward the village of Cognola appreciating the panorama of vineyards and the view of the Adige Valley. Once in the village, take Via alla Pellegrina to Pizzeria 4 stagioni and then continue in the direction of Santuario delle Laste and along Via dei Giardini until reaching Piazza Venezia and then the starting point of Piazza Duomo.
