TRENTINO MTB 2012
A mountain bike circuit challenging to do, but still accessible to most
people. Trentino MTB fits the bill. Trentino region
in North-eastern Italy is an alpine area where
mountain biking has always been popular, local
people and tourists have always showed huge passion
to mtb activities and always enjoyed practicing mtb
at any level.
With its characteristic valleys, wild forests and spectacular plateaus,
Trentino offers the perfect site for outdoor sports
and it has been hosting some of Italy’s most
appreciated and renowned mtb events for years. The
Trentino MTB Challenge is one of them, a seven race
mountain bike series held since 2009. Back then, the
series consisted of five races that were increased
by one in 2010, and by another one in 2011.
The 4th Trentino MTB Challenge will be staging seven races between April
and September 2012, held in different areas of the
region that will allow riders to appreciate the
historical and environmental significance of the
Italian region.
The inaugural race of 2012 Trentino MTB is
scheduled at the end of April and takes place in Val
di Non. It will be followed two weeks afterwards by
a brand new race in Valle di Ledro, near Lake Garda.
In June, the historic race named ‘100 Km dei Forti’
will get on the saddle in Lavarone, located inside
the Folgaria, Lavarone and Luserna plateau.
