Trail Reviews
To avoid the mud due to the heavy rains I went for a ride on this cycle path which at any time of the year offers glimpses of remarkable beauty.
Took a while but my wife hadn't cycled in a year and she even has a "gate"
Tour with a lot of asphalt and paving, little dirt and that little is really simple. There are no long slopes to overcome, for these reasons the tour is accessible to everyone and with any type of bicycle. Attention to the numerous pedestrians, it is advisable to use the bell to signal your approach to pedestrians and runners! The route is well signposted, the cycle path is very well maintained and there are several refreshment points and fountains... All you have to do is follow it!
Easy ride in company enjoying the climate of the lake🚴🌅
beautiful tour of the lake, partly on asphalt, partly on dirt road, unfortunately some sections of the cycle path were submerged in water, due to the storm the day before
It is a tour that starts directly from my office, an ebike rental point in Malgesso. You will travel 200mt to enter directly into an easy trail between meadows and woods that will take you to the cycle path of Lake Varese. It is an anti-clockwise path, along which there will be refreshments for lunch or simply drink a coffee. There will be points of historical interest such as the glaciers of Cazzago Brabbia, the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Lago and with a simple detour the Cloister of Voltorre. You will find the Virginia island towards the final part of the tour (which can be visited by taking advantage of the Varese lake boat service)
