A nice tour in the hills of Bologna, alternating very technical climbs and descents, with significant jumps and inclines, with a long, fairly easy ride on the ridge. This tour, suitable for moderately trained people, allows in a few hours to enjoy beautiful natural vistas and raise the adrenaline on technical descents.

Technical description:
The first part of this 29-km loop trail is quite challenging, which the less experienced can avoid (or they will have to get off the bike a few times).
From Bisano you descend towards Bologna on the provincial road for about 500 m, then, climbing to the left on a rather steep asphalt climb, the technical variant begins, with a single track with very difficult sections that leads back to the road that connects Bisano to Loiano.
From there continue past S. Benedetto del Querceto, then turn left onto Selva Grande Street. The road, initially paved (but in the last section unpaved), climbs steadily to reach Route 00 near La Martina Park. You pass it practically from the beginning, until you reach the wind turb ines (already visible at the start). You walk along the ridge and then descend for the other technical part of the trail.
