Biking in Pale di San Martino is an ebike tour characterized by unique scenery and splendid views in the presence of Pale di San Martino. First we will be accompanied by the Travignolo stream with its green woods and then we will go up through the fairytale Val Venegia with its pastures splendidly dominated by the profile of the Pale. Mulaz, Focobon, Bureloni and Cimon della Pala rise majestically.
A refreshing break at the Malga Juribello will offer us the opportunity to taste typical local and genuine products.
On the way back we will experience an electrifying adventure in the Paneveggio Natural Park, where spruces make up almost 90% of the trees in the forest.
It is said that it was Stradivari himself who wandered around the forest of Paneveggio in search of the most suitable trees for the construction of his violins: centuries-old spruces whose wood, thanks to its particular capacity for “resonance”, provided the ideal raw material for the construction of the sound boxes. Spruce wood is in fact particularly elastic, transmits sound better and its lymphatic channels are like tiny organ pipes that create resonance.
According to ancient tradition, the days that precede or follow the new moon in December are the most suitable for cutting: part of the trunks are immersed in the Travignolo stream where “the winter water caresses them, shake them, make them vibrate and play”. In May they are taken and processed to obtain fine wooden planks.
The e bike tour ends with passage over the suspended bridge and a suggestive tour around Lake Paneveggio.
This ebike tour is suitable for everyone, even beginners, and is ideal for cycling in the Dolomites in a highly fascinating context.
