SAUZE D’OULX
With five interlinked resorts, the
Milky Way is Italy’s equivalent of the
Portes du Soleil, and at the heart of this
natural playground is Sauze D’Oulx.
Another former host to the Enduro
World Series, expect miles of singletrack
snaking through airy larch forest and
rolling meadows. sauzedoulx.net

TUSCANY
Forget the cypress-lined avenues
of picture-postcard Tuscany, Ridgeline
MTB takes you high up into the rugged
Apennine mountains. Everything from
wild backcountry adventures to purpose-
built enduro tracks are on the menu, with
fully guided and shuttle-assisted holidays
run by Rich at Ridgeline. ridgeline.bike

TRENTINO
The Val di Fasso near Trentino
nestles in one of the most jaw-droppping
mountain ranges on the planet. The
gleaming white teeth of the Dolomites
would be the envy of any Hollywood
dentist, while the limestone trails are
sweet enough to give you toothache.

MOLINI DI TRIORA
Italy’s answer to Salem, this historic
town was the site of the last witch trials in
Europe. Now it boasts dozens of wicked
trails that are perfect for the modern
enduro broomstick. Be sure to explore the
neighbouring valleys too, as they offer a
similarly spellbinding riding experience.
