Finale Legends: The Essential Experience

"The 'greatest hits' of Finale Ligure, ridden on the very trails that saw the birth and rise of the Enduro World Series.This tour is a total mix of styles and terrains that will show you why Finale is the global Mecca of riding. We’ll start by warming up the brakes at Base Nato, a true Natural Bike Park: here you have 5 or 6 different lines ready to drop, packed with berms, jumps, compressions, and natural rollers where you can pump the bike through every bump and forget about the brakes.

Then we’ll switch gears on the Rollercoaster: 7 km of pure adrenaline, an endless 'natural bobsled' where you need to manage speed and power out of the corners. But watch out, because Finale knows how to get 'down and dirty': the tour moves to more physical sections with steep technical shoots and rock gardens where riding becomes slow and precise, almost trials-like, especially in the Ivolandia area. Here, we’ll ride the trails 'groomed' by Ivo, the legendary trail builder who has spent over 20 years caring for every rock and root to give you perfect lines. It’s the complete package: from high-speed flow to sections where you need focus and precision. As always, our guide will capture your most epic moments on photo and video, ready to be enjoyed over a cold beer at the end of the day!"

"Quality, Not Quantity" Philosophy

At MTB Italy, we believe the group makes the adventure. That’s why we guarantee small groups of maximum 7 riders + the guide, ensuring continuous assistance, safety, and an authentic experience away from the crowded big shuttles.

Technical Details & Requirements

• Ideal for: All Mountain / Enduro bikes (140-160 mm travel recommended).

• Required Level: S2/S3 (Intermediate - Advanced). Excellent bike control is required, and you must feel confident on demanding Red trails in European Bike Parks.

  • North American Riders: Ideal for riders comfortable on Blue Square / Black Diamond trails.

• E-bike: Welcome! As this is a group tour, we ask that you maintain the group’s pace so we can enjoy the experience together.

• Tour Pace: Remember, this is a guided tour, not a race! Everyone is free to descend at their own speed while respecting the group's timing and safety.

• Vibe: The perfect mix between "letting go" on the flow and surgical precision on tech sections.

Daily Schedule

• 08:30: Meet at our headquarters in Finale Ligure.

• 09:00: Departure in the VAN or our legendary Land Rover Defender 4x4.

• Morning: Depending on weather and ground conditions, the guide will strategically choose whether to start the session from Base Nato or the Rollercoaster area.

If the group is fast, our guide will be happy to add some extra trails to the program! (In case of closures due to maintenance, weather, or hunting, the guide will adapt the program choosing the best available options).

Useful Info & Gear

• Lunch: Cost is approx. €18/20 per person (not included). The restaurant offers great options for vegetarians and celiacs (please inform the guide during the morning briefing!).

• Protection: Helmet is mandatory (Open-face or full-face is at your discretion). Knee pads are highly recommended.

• In Your Pack: Every rider must carry a spare inner tube. We strongly suggest bringing a waterproof/windproof jacket: at high altitudes, the temperature can be 8/10°C lower than on the coast!
