2026 Cycling Routes

FAMILY

A route suitable for everyone. A pleasant and gentle climb on the Old Railway up to Caprareccia Station, one of the most evocative and charming locations on the route. A slow ride that will allow you to savor the atmosphere of the event and admire the panorama of the Spoleto Valley from above, reaching as far as Assisi. No medical certificate is required, just a great desire to have fun together.

Registration for the Family route can be done through the dedicated portal, or at our Welcome Point in Piazza Garibaldi in Spoleto during the event days. The minimum participation offer is 10 euros. The proceeds will be entirely donated to charity to the “Il sorriso di Teo” association, an organization created to help sick children and their families with prevention in the cardiology field.

The less ‘wild’ cyclotourists, but those eager to face a long and demanding route, will have 140 km and 3200 meters (elevation gain) available, made up of dirt roads, secondary roads, asphalt, and the unmissable SpoletoNorcia, which will leave a magical and fulfilling feeling.
