Doganaccia-Lago Scaffaiolo-Madonna dell'Acero-Ospitale-Cutigliano

Mountain bike loop route in counterclockwise direction.

From Cutigliano, take the cable car to Doganaccia. Continue to Passo della Calanca (1737 m) and reach Lago Scaffaiolo. Descend towards Lo Chalet (where the asphalt section begins), the small lake Cavone (with refuge), and Madonna dell'Acero. Continue descending through Cà di Gianninoni, Cà Tonelli, and Chiesina-Farné. At Pianacci starts a gravel climb of about 5 km. After passing Lago Pratignano there's a new descent section to La Piana, where the gravel ends. Now ascent about 10 km to Ospitale, then Osteria Nuova, Capanno Tassoni (1511 m), and Passo Croce Arcana (1675 m). From here it's almost all descent back to Doganaccia and Cutigliano.
