The path starts at the top of the Palabione gondola and descends towards Aprica, through confer forests. The first part is flat, very pleasant and fun: wide bends mean you can enjoy the entire descent but pay attention to draining water and a few stony stretches, which can be very insidious, especially when wet. The central part is tortuous, with some curves that are steeper, although the gradient never exceeds 20%. Return to the town along a dirt road.
The itinerary starts from the Magnolta gondola arrival point. Fitter cyclists can ride up the hill, following itinerary B.06 Aprica-Magnolta-Premalt tour until km 5.8, where the path begins, on the left. The initial stretch is flat and straightforward, with a highly compact surface, but don't go too fast as the path is also popular with hikers.
An enduro itinerary of medium difficulty, which descends to the town from the arrival of the Magnolta gondola. Take the gondola to get to the top; fitter cyclists can ride up the dirt-concrete road, following the itinerary of the Aprica-Magnolta-Premalt tour (B.06) to the top of the gondola. The first part is immersed in a conifer forest and follows a tortuous descent along the mountain slope.
A mountain/ enduro trail of medium difficulty, with a long singletrack leading from Piscé to Aprica. The ascent is on paved road, with gradients of around 8-10%.

The ascent leads up to Piscé, where you take the dirt road on your left upon reaching the noticeboard and climb all the way to the start of the path.
An easy mountain itinerary, along the edge of the Pian di Gembro nature reserve. Start from the Pian di Gembro picnic area and take the dirt road that runs adjacent to the peat bog, until you come to a paved road. Continue towards Piscé.
