Itinerary description
Roundtrip from Toscolano Moderno through the valley Valle Toscolano up to Passo del Cavallino della Fobia (1090 m) and down Valle d'Agna to Vobarno and then to Salo and back to Toscolano. Stretches along Lago di Garda are heavy with traffic. The roads up to the pass and back down are deserted. The way up goes in three stretches. The first stretch is from Gargnano (85 m) to Navazzo (~500 m), then a flat stretch along Lago di Valvestino, and then up to the pass just behind Capovalle at 950 meters, then down to 870 meters, and finally up to Passo del Cavallino della Fobia (1090 m). The last stretch up from 870 m and down to Vobarno has very bad asphalt. That means that most of the way down needs to be done very carefully and with brakes applied. Cycling the other way around would give a much better downhill stretch, but the uphill grade is much more strenuous. Uphill is largely through the Parco Regionale dell'Alto Garda Bresciano. The starting point is the dock of the ferry from Torri del Benaco, so you can get to this track from the other side of the lake easily (6 euro single way).
