Lago
Maggiore Bike Park was born from an idea of Amedeo Liguori,
born in Cava de' Tirreni in 1970, who now lives in Verbania
for several years.
Graduated
in Computer Science, mountain enthusiast and for over
fifteen years a mountain biker, he likes to travel the
territory of the province of Verbano Cusio Ossola riding
a bike, just for the fun of riding and maybe uncover
new trails to share with other mountain bikers.
The
passion for mountain biking has led him to realize several
projects:
-
in 2012 he has opened a YouTube
channel about video tutorial relating to the maintenance
of the bike;
-
in 2013 he has published the book "In
mountain bike nel Verbano - 30 itinerari tra il Lago
Maggiore, le valli e i monti del Verbano",
a guide published by Alberti Publisher of Intra, where
he has collected all him "exploratory discoveries"
of the recent years in the area close to the Lake Maggiore;
-
since same year he manages the web magazine "MTB-VCO.com",
a site about the world of mountain biking. He collaborated,
also, with some important mountain biking paper magazines;
-
in 2018 he has published the book "In
mountain bike nel Cusio - 20 itinerari intorno al Lago
d'Orta", a guide published by Alberti Publisher
of Intra, where he has collected all him "exploratory
discoveries" of the recent years in the area close
to the Lake Orta.
Lago
Maggiore Bike Park is a project that he had in mind
for some time, ever since he realized the potential,
in terms of pedalability, offered by the area between
the towns of Premeno and Ghiffa. An area that has a
lot to offer not only to hikers and that deserves to
be rediscovered.
In
this site you will find a description of the routes
of the bike park, with the possibility to download both
the gps tracks that a PDF guide, embodying the road
book of the routes.
