New Mountain Bike Trail opens in Livigno, Italy
The wait is over for Carosello 3000 Mountain Bike Park in Livigno Italy as the trails open this coming weekend with the launch of a new 1.8km Blueberry Line flow trail.
Bikers will be finally able to vent their desire for freedom on the new trails of the flow country style and on some of the existing natural paths (while some high-altitude paths have yet to be completely cleared of the snow still lying in the hollows). To reach the top, bikers can use both gondola lifts: Carosello 3000 in San Rocco area and Livigno Center.
The beginning of the season news is a new bike trail named Blueberry Line, the flow trail that winds through scenic glades and woodlands. The trail, with the length of 1,8 km, the vertical drop of 200 meters of and the average slope of 11%, was made this spring, fighting unusually adverse weather conditions, that is incessant rain, cold and incredible out of season snowfalls. But eventually the timing was respected and now the summer has arrived in Livigno. Thanks to its rhythm, a sequence of berms and the presence of special features (always flanked by "chicken-ways" solutions for the less experienced), the new trail will be a wonderful surprise for all bikers. An experience comparable to finding of blueberries in the woods.
Meanwhile, until midnight of Friday, June 24, on the website of Carosello3000 Livigno the "Early Rider Multi-passes" will be available. Multi-day tickets (usable also on non-consecutive days) can be purchased directly online with discount up to 30%.
This summer's MTB event is 3K Up & Down scheduled for July 24. It is not a real competition, but a day to experience freedom on a loop of 10 km with 1000 m of vertical drop where 150 participants will give chase to Lupato Brothers. Info and registration on the event web-site.
With 20 km of newly constructed MTB trails (and others being planned), in addition to 20 km of existing nature paths and various trails dedicated exclusively to hikers and trail runners, the Mountain Park Carosello 3000 appears as one of the largest and the most organized areas served by ropeway in Italy and Europe where one can enjoy outdoor sports.
