Monte Carmo MTB Tour: Ride the Best Trails in Pietra Ligure

The Monte Carmo tour is designed for riders who want to experience the best and most famous trails in Pietra Ligure, including legendary Enduro World Series (EWS) stages.

Your day will be packed with adrenaline, natural, and unforgettable descents on Monte Carmo, starting with a 40-minute uplift to Giogo di Giustenice. From here, we’ll drop into Pietra Ligure’s most iconic trails: Hiroshima – Hell Boy 1 – Hell Boy 2

These three trails offer over 5 km of thrilling downhill riding filled with drops, berms, and compressions, a true must-ride for enduro lovers.

After a second uplift to the top, another epic ride awaits: Oltrefinale trail – Titalana trail

After this second descent, we’ll take a short break for photos and snacks, followed by a 450 m ascent (partly rideable, partly hike-a-bike) back to Monte Carmo with lunch break at Giogo di Giustenice (packed lunch).

Post-lunch, we’ll reach Monte Carmo’s summit in about 30 minutes. A short hike may be needed, but the panoramic views from the top are breathtaking – perfect for photos before choosing your final descent:

Karma Trail – ~8 km of technical, black-rated EWS trail, ending in Loano.

After the descent, if we still have energy, other descents await us or we’ll return to Finale Ligure for a well-deserved ice cream and aperitivo, the perfect end to an epic day of riding.
