We cycle along small paths through the orchards of Mechel, a hamlet of the municipality of Cles. After passing the village of Tuenno at the entrance to the Valle di Tovel, we continue along the forest limit below Mt Sabbionare, heading towards south.
We ride across broadleaved forests and recreational areas of nearby villages until we reach Sporminore. After this hilly section, we climb a long slope starting from Maurina to the Valle dello Sporeggio, where the forest path reaches an altitude of 1,000 m a.s.l.
Once at the top, we cycle past the sports area to lago di Andalo and then on to the popular holiday resort of Andalo on the Paganella high plateau, our destination for this stage.
