The majesty and wonder of nature in the Gran Sasso National Park is the podium for this second stage of the PEDALITALY GRAN XMAS circuit.
PEDALITALY Gran Sasso Virtual Race enables you to ride in a territory with truly unique characteristics among the modelled peaks of Abruzzo and in the name of pure and natural simplicity.
The route will start from Castel del Monte, a small village certified as one of the most beautiful in Italy. The road then climbs for about six kilometres up to the Capo la Serra pass at an altitude of 1600 metres, and once over the pass, the route officially enters the Campo Imperatore plateau. This area of glacial origin takes on the natural characteristics of Tibet. From the route it is possible to see, in addition to the wide expanse of unspoilt nature, the peaks of Monte Prena, Monte Informace and Corno Grande, which is almost 3000 metres high.
The last part of the route will be a climb of about 8km that reaches the Campo Imperatore astronomical observatory at an altitude of 2100m, which has been chosen as the final stage of the Giro d'Italia several times.
The entire stage is approximately 34 km long with a total altitude difference of 1000 m.
