The ring route of Macchiarvana by e-bike

A splendid itinerary in an ideal terrain for electric mountain bikes. From the centre of Pescasseroli we cross the beautiful beech woods of Macchiarvana and Camporotondo until we reach the panoramic Sanctuary of Monte Tranquillo. Through short stops we will have the opportunity to listen to the sounds of the forest, to smell its scents, to look at the light and the shades of colour that characterise it. An e-bike is a way to go down paths that are not normally accessible to everyone, to enjoy the road, the landscape and nature.
