TAPPA 10 LEVICO TERME—BORGO VALSUGANA

Km 14,7 cycling lane +30 –50 E

Km 20 Valle Sella + 765m - 880 m E

This is a stage with two alternative

routes. The first follows the cycling lane

of the Brenta River or parallel lanes;

the second, for those who are attracted

by the beauty of the surrounding

country and its singularity, can face the

steep hill that reaches 1.000 m above

sea level of Valle Sella. Neither route is

historical but both enable the walker to

avoid the extremely intense and fast

traffic as usually is in the entire

Valsugana.

Leaving from the Parrish Church, follow the Via Regia and then Via G.Marconi, Via Rovigo,

5

turn right, then suddenly to the left, and after a few meters we cross the Provincial highway to take Via Cervia.

6

1 km of gentle slope and we shall be on the cycling lane of the River Brenta,

7

which we shall follow for the next 2 km. Then we shall leave it turning right, then immediately left: we shall then

follow a parallel road for 6 km, more interesting from the landscape view point, without traffic until the underpass,

on the left of the railway and the State Highway SS47. We are at the level of Marter.

8

If we want to go to Roncegno we cross the River Brenta and Provincial Highway SP228 and take the Via Val

dell’Orso which will take us on to the Via Claudia Augusta: 2 km more and we shall be in the village; or otherwise

we continue the cycling lane on the right bank of the Brenta and shall arrive at Borgo Valsugana about 6 km

where we shall find the lane that descends to Valle Sella.

Borgo Valsugana

If instead we prefer go up to Valle Sella (+4 km) then, having descended from Levico, we shall go to

Barco. After crossing the Brenta, we shall take the cycling lane and walk for 500 m, then turn right; after

350m turn left, another 250m to the right, follow the road for 1,5 km

11

and you are in the valley of the Torrent Sella.

12

We begin to climb for about 4,5 km, until at the top we will admire a great view of the landscape of forests,

meadows, where there will be works of art by artists from all over the world whose works are made entirely with

local materials

13

There will be excellent restoration available.

14

. From Sella we resume our walk towards Borgo, following the road, almost entirely paved with tarmac, but no

traffic, with the possibility of admiring several work of art on route.
