We know it well: the island of Elba has an incredibly dense and highly technical network of trails. Many maps show the entire island on a large scale with outdated routes without proper MTB classification.

ELBA TRAILMASTER MAPS

Elba Trailmaster, based on 15 years of biking and trekking experience on the Elbe, has cataloged all the routes currently accessible and viable, classifying them by colors of difficulty. All on a super scale 1: 12500, with some sectors in additional detail 1: 7500 - 1: 5000.

MTB GUIDE

Our advice, if you have the slightest doubts, is always to rely on a guide: in addition to not getting lost, he will give us some technical notions of mountain bike riding which will also come in handy in the future so as not to take risks whenever we find ourselves faced with a technical stretch (click here).

Here are 2 very technical proposals, suitable for expert bikers, for crossing the island.

[email protected] I am a fan of everything that has 2 wheels: at a young age I practiced road and track cycling (Italian Allievi champion). At the age of 18 I passed into the cross country competing at national/international level as an Under23. Past Elite, I made the choice to take things more lightly from a training point of view, and my love for gravity disciplines was born, training me as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made passion my profession by managing 2 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Bike Center Elba and Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
