After a scenic warm-up ride along the lake with a final climb up to Busatte, the group reaches the skill park, where the core part of the activity takes place.
Here, riders work through progressive and targeted exercises, adapted to the participants’ level, to develop practical skills that can be immediately applied on the trail.
During the session, the focus will be on:
- riding position and weight distribution
- braking techniques and modulation
- cornering and line choice
- overcoming obstacles and technical terrain (roots, rocks, uneven sections)
Who is this activity for?
The activity is designed for riders of all levels, both on traditional MTBs and e-MTBs, who want to improve their riding technique in a controlled and structured environment.
Participants will be divided into MTB and e-MTB groups, as the two bike types require different technical approaches (power management, setup, braking and control).
During the transfer from Riva del Garda to Parco delle Busatte (Torbole), participants must respect traffic regulations and follow the instructors’ directions.
During the activity, all safety rules and instructors’ guidelines must be followed.
Activity reserved for participants aged 18 and over, or from 16 years old if accompanied by an adult.
Where does the activity take place?
Departure from the Bike Festival Guided Tours stand (maps): scenic ride along the lake to Torbole, followed by a final climb to Busatte, where the Skill Area is located.
What to expect during the activity
The activity takes place inside the MTB SKILL PARK BUSATTE and includes technical exercises on artificial and natural obstacles.
During the session, participants will also have the opportunity to try BMX bikes on the Busatte track, working on balance, stability, coordination and bike control – skills that also enhance MTB riding.
