Guided cycling Tour Gran Fondo Pinarello

La Pina Cycling Marathon is a challenging Gran Fondo sportive that starts in the beautiful town of Treviso and heads into the Dolomites.

Treviso is the home of the Italian sparkling wine Prosecco, the clothing empire Benetton and the internationally renowned cycling brand, Pinarello, which hosts the Gran Fondo Pinarello cycling marathon every year. The whole town is taken over by cyclists from across Italy and around the world for this celebration of the famous Pinarello brand and Italian cycling.

The shorter Medio Fondo takes you into the lower hills just north of Treviso where you ride through the unique Prosecco vineyard landscape. This route is 114 km long and features a few Category 3 hills. It is a good challenge for the average rider. The longer Gran Fondo route takes you up and over the Treviso Alps and returns you along the shoulder of the Monte Grappa massif. This route is 158 km long and the mountain crossings are Category 1 climbs. This route is a serious challenge for the experienced, well-trained cyclist.
