TOUR WERIDE
EASY TOUR - GOLDEN HILL
Length: 20km
Technical difficulty: EASY
Physical fitness: EASY
Duration by e-bike: 2h30m with short stop
The route starts from Lake Lugano and crosses the woods of Collina d'Oro to arrive on the other side of the hill, at the small Muzzano lake, a rare example of a glacial lake in the hills. Its banks, which have remained undeveloped, are still valuable today and offer the opportunity to dive into nature just a short distance from the urban centre of Lugano. Along the route one crosses Montagnola and then arrives on the other side of the hill, on the lakeshore, is the Pian Càsoro Park, a recreational area, ideal for bathing and leisure time in general.
Tour starts at 10 a.m. from the WeRide tent in Piazza Riforma on both Saturday 20 and Sunday 21
MEDIUM TOUR - VICANIA BIKE
Length: 25km
Technical difficulty: MEDIUM
Physical fitness: MEDIUM
Duration by e-bike: 2h30m with a short stop
Along the route, you will not be able to remain indifferent to the charm of the Torello area, which includes the church with the convent, the old farmhouse and the surrounding meadows, the church of Madonna d'Ongero with its Way of the Cross, Alpe Vicania with its pastures and inviting restaurant (seasonal opening) and, just before Carona, the San Grato Botanical Park, which, with its diversity of flora, themed trails and restaurant will tempt you to take a break. In Carona, you cannot miss a visit to the characteristic village centre and the parish church of San Giorgio. There are several points along the route where you can enjoy the panorama of the lake and surrounding mountains. This proposal takes place almost entirely on dirt roads immersed in varied woods.
Tour departure at 10:00 a.m. from the WeRide tent in Piazza Riforma on both Saturday 20 and Sunday 21
ADVANCED TOUR - ARBOSTORA TRAILS
Length: 30km
Technical difficulty: ADVANCED
Physical fitness: MEDIUM
Duration by e-bike: 2h30m with short stop
We climb up to Carona from the same "Vicania Bike" route, entering the woods from Pazzallo to arrive at the Carona swimming pools, from where, however, the more technical part begins, tackling enduro trails that are very fun and at times challenging. These are the routes where Ticino athletes often train in mtb enduro competitions, including members of the WeRide Fulgur Factory Team
