Debate Erupts Over Ponale Trail at Garda Cycling Conference in Bezzecca

The Ponale trail, a historic route and centuries-old access to the Ledro Valley, is at the center of controversy over the Garda cycling path project. Local committees have raised concerns that planned modifications—such as tunnels, cantilevered walkways, and new bridges—could significantly alter the trail’s profile, particularly near Casa della Trota.

An informational meeting has been scheduled for Friday, March 27, 2026, at 8:30 PM in Bezzecca’s Sala Maestro Nando. Organized by regional environmental groups, the event aims to clarify project details, discuss historical context, and present potential developments, with speakers including Fabio Festaglio, Paolo Mattei, and Marina Bonometti.
