Starting from Barco, near the church, direction Borgo, continue along the street going downhill fisrt through rown and then in the fields up to the cycle path, on the right near the river Brenta. Right before getting to Borgo at the T-crossing instead of turning left and using the train underpass, leave the cycle path and keep to the right. Ride along a trout breeding area and keep on going straight up a paved road. After about 400 metres you get to an intersection: instead of turning right for the marked cycle path, keep to the right to reach and ride along Villa Dordi. The street continues downhill until you reach an intersection after about 600 metres. Keep to the right and start going uphill. At the next crossing in the woods turn left and take the paved road. After a long hill you get to S. Giorgio and at the intersection with the SP go right towards Val di Sella (if you go down on your left you head back, first you get to Borgo and thenfollow the signs for the cycle path). After about 1.5 kms take the road up on the right marked with the cycle path signs. After about 800 metres of steep hills you get onto a flat diert road. Next to the restaurant Legno you get back onto the SP. Continue straight along and after about 300 metres take the road uphill on the right which marks the beginning of the Art and Nature path. Follow this path up to the biotope (conservation land – moorland) and then take the paved road again and go right. Go pass the Carlom restaurant and go straight following the signs for Malga Costa (we suggest stopping to visit the Cathedral Vegetale not far from there). Continue on the dirt road uphill following the signs for Barco. Right by the end of the woods, on the left there is a wood gate/barrier, pass it and continue along a house (on the left). Go downhill a bit for 15 metres and on the right take the road in the woods that goes on down and ends up at a crossroads. Keep to the left and after passing the bridge continue uphill staying on the main road without making any detour. After about 9 kms you get to the town of Barco. Head back to the departure point near the church.
