Small Trodena Round (Old railroad track)
From Truden via Glen and Montan to the old Fleimstal railway to Kaltenbrunn and back. Trail no. 2. Refreshments: Schönwies, Trudnerhof.
Mountainbike, E-Bike & Pleasure Cycling
Starting in the centre of Trodena we ride downhill a few kilometres. The asphalted street passes vineyards where you can enjoy the amazing view of the Valle dell'Adige. Then we'll reach the village of Gleno and Montagna. On the old railroad track, which leads into the Val di Fiemme, we pass the village of Montagna. With an easy grade, as it was necessary for an old steam locomotive, we follow the old railroad tracks over bridge constructions and pleasant gravel paths until we reach Fontanefredde. After only two kilometres you'll reach again the centre of Trodena.
