The event in a few words

Head to the spectacular region of Liguria, right in the heart of the legendary Cinque Terre 🇮🇹. The program sets the tone with a single event reserved for fearless athletes. Your body will have to handle an ultra-technical 47 km format showing around 2,600 m of elevation gain on the clock 📈. The leg-breaking terrain gives absolutely no mercy to underprepared bodies.

The demanding route throws you straight into a maze of narrow trails suspended above the Mediterranean 🌊. Your effort is all about climbing endless stairways and skirting the countless dry-stone walls shaped by human hands. The historical immersion becomes total as you cross the incredible terraced vineyards that give birth to Sciacchetrà 🍇. This ultra-rare sweet wine quite naturally gave its name to the race, intimately linking runners’ sweat to the hard work of local winegrowers.

Adrenaline saturates the salty air from the moment the start signal is given near the famous colorful façades 🌪️. The spirit of resilience completely dominates the packs in the face of the brutality of the slopes. Put away your cravings for pure speed—the ever-present technicality demands absolute focus with every foot placement 🦅. Parking your trail shoes afterward to wander the area then guarantees excellent recovery moments with your loved ones. Take your crew on a small traditional boat to admire the five fishing villages straight from the sea ⛴️.

Drive about thirty minutes south to explore the majestic alleys of Portovenere or visit the fascinating Doria Castle overlooking the waves 🏰. Diving into the corridors of the Naval Technical Museum of La Spezia will also captivate children eager for maritime adventures ⚓. Switch into mountain mode, take on the Ligurian staircases, and come savor your triumph the Italian way! 💥
