Trail #3 is a network of challenging trails around the river Egola. Mostly in the deep of the forest. It is a wonderful hiking network if you want to escape from people. MTBiking is possible in some parts (2, 3 and 4) having clear in mind that this network is to be considered for expert bikers only. Biking on #3 network is strongly unsuggested for children.
