Exploring the Valle di Braies by mountain bike is an unforgettable experience, especially along this panoramic MTB loop that starts and ends at Prato Piazza, near the iconic Lake Braies. The route can also be enjoyed in the evening, when the Dolomites glow with soft light and the atmosphere becomes even more magical.
From the starting point, follow Trail 37 westward, cross the bridge and continue south. After about 1.5 km, turn right onto a short uphill section that leads to a forest road. The trail descends gently along the edge of the woods until it reaches the main road.
Before the bridge, turn left and continue past Braies Nuova (km 4.5), staying on the main road. At the next hairpin bend, turn left following the 2A MTB route towards Monguelfo. The path passes below a small chapel and continues across open meadows before entering the forest again.
A descent to the right leads towards a farmhouse, then further down to Ferrara di Braies. After crossing the bridge, climb to the right along the stream until you reach the main road. Turn left to return comfortably to the starting point.
