The Karma Trail is the epic ride of the Finale Outdoor Region, on the Pietra Ligure and Loano side: number 345 on the official map, rated difficult to very difficult.
In the Enduro World Series it was the second-longest special stage ever raced: 8.3 kilometres and 1,100 metres of descent, starting from the summit of Monte Carmo di Loano at 1,389 metres. The summit is no longer open to bikes: the trail now starts from the col just below, on the east side.
It is long, technical, narrow and steep: a route for experienced riders. Before you set off, check on the Finale Outdoor Region website that it is open: trails close for maintenance, races or bad weather.
