The 42km starts in the historic center of Tirano, at Madonna di Tirano we tackle the scenic and short climb that leads to the Church of Santa Perpetua, and from here, in a maze of historic paths carved out of dry-stone walls overlooking the villages of Villa di Tirano and Bianzone and the Zanolari winery, we arrive at the stately Tenuta la Gatta, a gem amidst rows of Nebbiolo, which the competitors cross before tackling the first major roughness of the day: the climb of Boalzo and the Torre de li Beli Miri di Teglio (Km 18). From the village of Teglio, they proceed downhill to reach km 24 in Chiuro, the starting site of the half marathon, with which it shares the route.
