Cycling day trip from Molina di Ledro to Riva del Garda

Kick off your cycling adventure in the charming village of Molina di Ledro, nestled in the mountains of Northern Italy. Known for its stunning lake of the same name, it’s the perfect spot to start this epic ride. Expect a scenic journey with impressive ascents and descents, reaching a max elevation of 1,023 meters. This route is a sweet mix of terrain, giving you a whopping 101 kilometers to cover — an adventure for sure!

You'll spend most of your time on quiet roads, with segments of cycleways and the occasional busy road keeping things lively. The majority of the ride is on asphalt (53%), but there are patches of missing trail and other varied surfaces to keep things interesting. As you cruise down towards Riva del Garda, relish the shift into a quietly bustling town known for its vibrant town square and stunning waterfront on Lake Garda.

End your ride with a well-deserved gelato or a dip in Italy's largest lake. Remember, Riva del Garda was a favorite retreat for the likes of Nietzsche, so you’re in excellent company!
