The story

A wonderful experience for anyone who likes pedalling. Leaving the car at the Cornale brewery before Tezze sul Brenta, you follow the Valsugana cycle path that runs alongside the river Brenta, through ups and downs, plants, small villages, vineyards, picnic areas - an immersion in nature. The route is almost entirely traffic-free, except for a few short stretches crossing tiny villages. There's a refreshment area about halfway along the route and various rest points with benches and drinking fountains. Very suitable for families with children too, keeping an eye out for the odd over-enthusiastic cyclist who thinks they're in the Giro d'Italia. To reach Borgo Valsugana you cover about 25 km, and another equal distance brings you to Lake Caldonazzo, where you can take a pleasant break, even just for an ice cream on the lakeside.

"Lasciata l’auto alla birreria Cornale prima di Tezze sul Brenta" Tezze sul Brenta è da un'altra parte, circa 30km più a sud, quel paesino si chiama Tezze.
