The route in short
We leave Creazzo in the direction of Montecchio Maggiore, which we cross (km 7). And then off we go, skimming hills and crossing valleys: Montebello Vicentino (km 17), Monteforte d’Alpone (km 27), Soave (km 32). Now two beautiful, short climbs appear before us: Colognola ai Colli (km 39) and San Briccio (km 48). We easily pass San Martino Buon Albergo (km 54) and then, in a flash, arrive at Montorio Veronese and Villa Guerrina (km 60), the end of our journey.
Attention
Route almost entirely on secondary roads, and short sections of cycle paths. A few tiny stretches of dirt road.
The route may be subject to change. The final tracks will be sent 15 days after the event. The elevation data are automatically taken from the Outdooractive software.
Environment and Landscape
We cycle right at the foot of the beautiful Prealps, rich above all in famous vineyards. After Montebello Vicentino and Monteforte d’Alpone, we pass through medieval Soave, named Italy’s most beautiful village in 2022. Two short climbs now await us, immersed in such pleasant surroundings that we forget all fatigue: Colognola ai Colli and San Briccio. After the quick crossing of the congested town of San Martino Buon Albergo, it is still water that leads us to the arrival: the placid Fibbio stream. The last handful of kilometres is a ca-ress to the hills from which we started. We feel we must slow our pedalling to experience these last few metres with extreme depth, fully savouring the nature that surrounds us and letting our deepest emotions burst forth.
Suddenly, coming out of Montorio, we see Villa Guerrina. It seemed like a dream: now, it is reality.
