Planned Route Notes
This stage continues north from Soverato along the Ionian coastline, following quiet coastal roads and exposed shoreline corridors. The route passes through remote eastern Calabria, including the coastal plains near Crotone, where the landscape opens and the sea remains constantly present. Further north, the road turns inland into the mountainous interior near the Sila National Park region, transitioning from coastal exposure to elevated forest terrain and isolated highland riding. This stage reinforces the northbound return trajectory while maintaining maximum terrain diversity between coastline and mountain interior.
