The last born. Thought and desired, on the sofa, during the first lockdown.
Fast curves, then toboggan, fast curves again, a nice drop and a fun cracked finish.

Near Loiano there is a complex of very fun MTB trails, part of the Bologna Montana Bike Area. Throughout the area there are war relics, which is why the names of the trails were inspired by war vocabulary.

This bank and jump snake is the latest creation from the Pinewood team. The icing on the cake to bring home the maximum altitude difference that the Alpe can offer. From the name (slipknot) you can guess the fluidity of this trail, short, but intense, rhythmic and very fun. Have you brought the whole Bronson home and still want to get off? Then go for it !!! (Trail in the yard, the first part is still missing but still viable, worked in "bike park" style with sides and jumps)

All new, all cool! The last born. Thought and desired, on the sofa, during the first lockdown. Fast curves, then toboggan, fast curves again, a nice drop and a fun cracked finish.

A flow never seen before! If flow is king for you, choose Le Pozze! It starts flowing and rhythmic with jumps up to the final part, where a rock garden will be there waiting for you. Fast, fun, rude, sensual and ruthless. Is this all possible together? Try it ... P.S. The final part on the stones is recommended for experienced riders, in case, at that point, opt to descend from the simpler Lockdown (from the boar pools on the left)
