Your Baak Aventures motorcycle tour
6 stages - 550 miles
1/6 • Nice - Forte di Colle Alto
We set off in the morning and say goodbye to Nice and the Mediterranean and head in search of back country trails. We hit our first tracks after only a few miles of tarmac and soon discover the Alpi Liguri Natural Park.
90 miles
2/6 • Forte di Colle Alto - Ponte Marmora
We push towards Demonte on paths that wind through conifer forests in the heart of the Alpi Marittime Natural Park. We begin our ascent towards the high mountain pastures through Arma Valley, where we take a break at Lou Stau and sample numerous Italian dishes.
87 miles
3/6 • Ponte Marmora - La Pala
After sleeping to the dulcet sounds of the river, we set off again in search of higher altitudes on the Strada dei Cannoni, a rocky track riddled with plenty of ruts. After tackling the challenging road for an hour or so, we begin our descent towards Becetto where we enjoy a delicious traditional lunch.
84 miles
4/6 • La Pala - Mont Cenis Lake
We continue our ascent northwards into the wooded mountains to the west of Pinerolo on paths peppered with asphalt until we reach Fenestrelle fort. This colossal eighteenth-century fortress gives us time to take a break before tackling the Strada dell’Assietta.
