Planned Route Notes
This route begins in Lugano, descending south along the eastern shore of Lake Como before cutting through the foothills toward the northern perimeter of Milan. It then continues across the Lombardy plains near Piacenza and transitions into the northern Apennine Mountains, where the terrain shifts to technical mountain riding with sustained elevation changes, dense forest, and isolated valleys. The final segment descends through Ligurian mountain corridors toward the Mediterranean coast, terminating in La Spezia. The ride combines alpine lakes, urban periphery, agricultural plains, and classic Apennine twisties, forming a continuous north–south transition from Switzerland to the Ligurian Sea.
