A short but intense itinerary, perfect for those who want to experience the power of the Peloritani without sacrificing flow and adrenaline. The tour starts from the Castello di Novara di Sicilia, a stunning panoramic point overlooking the entire village: a start that immediately sets the adventure mode.
The first meters climb steadily along ancient mule tracks and dirt roads that scramble toward Rocca Novara, the iconic mountain that towers like a natural pyramid. The climb is constant and muscular, ideal for those who love to find their rhythm and tackle significant gradients without ever losing the open view of the valley. As you gain altitude, the landscape shifts: moving from the scents of the village to the vast panoramas of the Peloritani, with ridges and hills that seem to never end.
Reaching the slopes of the Rocca, the most fun part of the ride begins: a varied and adrenaline-pumping descent that alternates fast single tracks, natural curves, technical rocky passages, and smoother sections. Here, the bike moves free and fluid, and the view of the Castle and the medieval village makes everything even more evocative. It is a perfect mix of nature, adrenaline, and history.
The return toward Novara is a succession of scenic stretches and paths immersed in greenery, with a feeling of total freedom that accompanies you to the very last meters.
A compact tour but rich in emotions: perfect for those seeking an energy boost, a powerful training session, or simply an MTB experience that leaves its mark.
