Granfondo Firenze De Rosa

DeRosa GranFondo Firenze

October 06, 2024 - Florence Tuscany Italy

The DeRosa Granfondo Firenze is one of the most exciting and fascinating events on the Italian scene and has brought for the first time in history a cycling race to cross places full of charm and history such as Piazzale Michelangelo and Ponte Vecchio.

Tuscany is one of the most beautiful places on earth and in the Granfondo Firenze you get the opportunity to chose from 3 routes which take you through rolling hills and vineyards. The feed station are something to behold with wine, cheese and ham the order of the day. The final 1 kilometre is traditionally very hard with an incline sure to test tired legs.

In our opinion, it's the very best post event pasta party, that takes place in the nearby racecourse. This is a tremendous Gran Fondo and one which we recommend for those wishing to ride and combine with a family holiday, as there is plenty to do for kids in Florence!

The Gran Fondo is 117 km and the Medio Fondo of 84 km.
