Christmas with your family, Easter with whomever you ......... or, Dallas, Raffaella, Ghid, Valentina and the family Ammerman made Teo, Laura, Stephen and the mythical fourth member being male "presviluppo! (still anonymous ?!?!)
Malcesine, a village on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, the proposed destination of the Teo where we ended up in the late morning to begin immediately with a nice grilled chicken cooked over a nice Brescia birrone fresh aaaaaaaa!
Teo and Dallas on the ground well in advance, are already quite nervous because the only cable car takes you to share and 600m races are quite limited.
After much indecision and disorganization, however we decide to climb to 600m (the beauty of paying 11euro) and then improvise something, armed only with a scandalous map from which it can be seen even if the trail was uphill or downhill! Once you get to share
600slm we decide to go up a bit ' walking (pushing the bike!) a white path beaten by many Germans, Italians miss the shade! Luckily Ghid know English .............. At some point we reach a road-hardened and outrageously steep that we decide to take, of course always pushing the bike. (But not when you ride a bicycle !?!?!?)
Direction: "the Lord" (just in the theme of Easter) is a super place with a kind of disappointing in the shade canopy and a painting of the Lord to reach that m940 after 5 km climb hard and with very little water! I propose the immediate withdrawal exhausted by TKO, but Teo and Dallas continue to opt for a location Leads call from our map that seemed to be reached in half an hour and starts flat but ......... another hour of climbing and super without water !!!!!
finally at an altitude of 1200 opens before us a small house with a lawn and some plants and cut where some strains are beginning to have some fun 'doing some skipping and thinking that the trouble was over!
Two minutes and we were down in the snow! Teo does a quick turn of foot patrol and come back saying "You can do but it is super extreme" and that's where I start to worry seriously! Nevertheless decides to continue and not just passed a sudden snow semisciolta that stirred the branches and plants (they were probably debris avalanche ua) we hell! A dozen tight hairpin bends, with inability to turn very slippery and a fund made up of dried leaves and stones! Virtually the face piece at zero speed and with some risk of getting really hurt! But then a beautiful piece of woodland style single track for about twenty minutes leading later to a beautiful meadow with a small house and a great lookout point where we meditate on the difficult day.
The descent ends with watering the garden from the barrel of a woman originally from Blind. So thirsty boys!
The next day we spend wandering around the villages in the Lake Garda as: Torbole, Limone Sul Garda Tignale and where we find a great restaurant on a terrace from which we can focus on the Monte Baldo with the tops still covered with snow, a sight! There
kid stuffing and skewer of chicken drowned by a good bulk Bardolino, concluding with the binge Easter dove and various clamps! Total 20 € a skull!
From here a series of improvisations incredible and worthy to be told. Dallas and his wife decide to go to the low and we follow them with the idea of \u200b\u200bstopping for the night in some village on the lake but after a few minutes of travel, a nightmare: traffic! After several discussions between men and women and some Bargnolino you decide to achieve the peace of Lake Valvestino, dubbed "the death or Twin peacks! A very surreal place that we decided to leave almost immediately once the third largest lake: the Idro!
Vantone Here are a fantastic camp where the grass everywhere mastered down to the shores of Lake Teo swelling of happiness! E 'from here that we improvise a bike ride that we will find one of the best ever made so far:
on Easter Monday females led us to share 900 Capovalle Zumiè village, where we have harnessed good for all our protection convinced instantly find the descent but ..... another unexpected: another beautiful climb full of uprooted plants to a height of about 1200, at the foot of Mount Stine.
From here on, however, was a continuous increase in adrenaline mixture of joy and contentment! The first part was very steep but with enough gentle bends and technicians (as stated in Dallas). In the middle we found a nice corner where we had to take some photos and then a nice single track until you reach the lake, a small wonder that ended with a downpour that accompanied us to the campsite!
To be repeated in summer from the top of the mountain at an altitude of 1400 Stino! For all other
