Length: 52km
Those who take on this strenuous tour will be rewarded with a beautiful view and a magnificent return trip on the Ritten high plateau. The starting point of the mountain bike route is Villandro.
From here, the path leads past Gravetsch Castle to the Gasser Hut. Here, you take trail no. 6 and then trail no. 7A. Then follows the ascent to the Rittner Horn. The summit forms the highest point of Ritten and is therefore known as a lookout mountain.
In view are the Grossglockner, the Dolomites, the imposing Ortler Group, and many more. The return path runs over the Ritten high plateau, which still has a few surprises in the form of difficult trails.
