This itinerary leaves from the Garda Trentino Tourist Office in Riva del Garda. Cycle along Lake Garda in the direction of Torbole and after you cross the bridge over the Albola, turn left into via Friedrich Nietsche. At the end of the cycle path, cross the main road (viale Rovereto) and take to the cycle path again following directions for Varone. The cycle path ends at Varone and you cycle along the main road in the direction of Lake Tenno.
Immediately after Varone, on your left, you come across the Varone waterfall which is well worth a visit. Roughly a hundred metres after the Varone waterfall, turn left into via dei Capitelli. Ride uphill through olive groves with a marvellous view over the lake.
Cycle through Cologna down the roads of the small town until you come out again onto the main road S.S. 421. Continue along the main road until you come to Volta di No, turn into the village, and after a few metres turn left. The road you are on alternates between a dirt track and cobbled laneway. Continue on amid olive groves and terraced vineyards with a panoramic view over the lake and valley. At the end of this stretch you cycle downhill to Tenno. The first thing you come across is the imposing manor house which overlooks the valley below. Now continue along the main road, S.S. 421, in the direction of Lake Tenno. At the second bend turn onto the dirt track on the left which takes you through fields and vegetable plots to Ville del Monte. Turn left at the stop sign and cycle along the main road for a short stretch, then turn right towards the lovely medieval village of Canale. Cycle through the village and take the dirt track towards Lake Tenno. Turn left when you come to Frioc and continue along a tarmac road till you come to Lake Tenno. At this point you can get off your bike and walk down to the shore to admire the turquoise colour of the lake.
After this short break, get back on your bike and cross the road to head down towards Pranzo di Tenno until you come to the turn-off on the right and take the road for Campi. Cycle along a straight stretch then turn left onto a dirt track. Here you continue on down through chestnut woods and you soon come to Pranzo. Cycle through the hamlet around a bend to the left and, after about 50 metres, turn right. Pedal on down through fields and at the end of the road turn right onto the main road. Continue on downhill on the tarmac road, and after a few bends there is a long straight stretch after which you turn left into Deva. The main road heads on downhill once more and, after you pass the last houses, take a left turn onto a dirt road. At the end of this track you come to Dom. Continue on down on a dirt track and then on tarmac as far as San Giacomo. Keep to the right and you pass through Ardaro to Riva del Garda. Continue on down at the stop sign as far as the church of Santa Maria Inviolata. Keep to the right and follow directions for the post office of Riva. At the post office roundabout turn right again into via Filzi and you are back to where you started from.
