Strega Path
The Strega path along 2,23 km is situated inside the Elba Gravity Bike Park and it develops itself on Monte Strega from which it takes the name. Leaving from the Aia di Cacio, you will soon face a steep climb which cannot be faced by bike which will lead us on the summit of the Monte Strega (427 meters a.s.l.). Reached the top of the Monte, it will be possible to admire a width panoramic view on both sides: to the east one you can admire the towns of Rio nell'Elba and Rio Marina, whereas the west side opens itself on the bays of Nisporto and Nisportino, opposite which there is the Gulf of Portoferraio with its port.
The path continues in quota, crossing all the Monte Strega until arriving at a steep and demanding descent which will lead you to Passo La Croce. To this point you will turn left, then take the path on the right which will lead you to the equipped area Le Panche, where there is a beautiful equipped pine grove, perfect to recover your energies.
For the bikers who would like to rent the equipment, professional mountain bikes or would like to make guided excursions, we remind you that in the zone there are some expert guides good at supplying you of the adequate equipment and at showing you the most interesting paths of the side.
