Rona Bike
Savognin–Savognin
The “Rona Bike” tour is a pleasant after-work jaunt without any technical challenges. It is not too strenuous, suitable even for those who are new to mountain biking and for families.
The tour starts at the parking lot of the Savognin mountain cableways. The pleasant trail is relatively flat and leads along the Julia River to Tinizong. The elongated village is situated slightly above the right bank of the river. It is the upper-most village of the Sotgôt area. A tree-covered slope, caused by a mountain slide, separates the two parts of the valley into Sotgôt and Surgôt. After a turn-off near the Tinizong soccer field the path gets a bit steeper.
Across the river the trail continues in the shade of the forest to Rona. In winter this is a cross-country ski trail. In Rona we cross the bridge first, then the main road. Keeping to the left through the village we follow the trail back to Tinizong.
Now comes a relaxing part of the tour. The section between Rona and Tinizong is also known as the Roman Road because of the archaeological findings of that time. In Vardaval, after crossing the main road again, a pleasant trail leads gently downhill along the Julia River and back to Savognin.

Hints
Tours with an e-mountain bike
The tourism organisations had these routes registered specifically as e-mountain bike routes. Technically, they are not too difficult, no passages where the bike has to be carried, short sections where it needs to be pushed, and doable with one battery charge (max. 1000 -1200 m altitude difference). Details about e-mountain biking are available at
