The Palio del Golfo is a rowing challenge that is held every year, on the first Sunday of August, in the sea of ​​the Gulf of La Spezia. The previous day there is a parade of allegorical floats from the participating villages.

It promises to be a fiery July for Italian fat wheels, which will experience one of the most important moments of the season in Pergine with the awarding of the national title for the XCO and E-MTB mountain bike disciplines. In fact, from 19 to 21 July, in the splendid setting of Pergine Valsugana, in Trentino, the MTB Absolute Italian Championships for cross country and pedal-assisted vehicles will be staged, involving the UCI and Master categories. It will begin on Friday 19 with the E-MTB test, then continue on Saturday 20 with the XCO test, and conclude on Sunday 21 with the Masters. The 3-day event in Valsugana will be crucial, to say the least, for the Italian athletes also because it will precede the big appointment with the Paris 2024 Olympics. Just one week after the tricolour challenges in Pergine, in fact, the athletes who will have earned qualification for the Games will fly directly to the French capital. Before arriving at La Colline d'Élancourt, the race venue for the Five Circles MTB trials, however, they will have to compete in the Parco Tre Castagni Bike Park, a scenic setting where the organising committee of the MTB Oltrefersina led by Paolo Alverà is already at work to prepare a weekend that will go down in the annals. "We are working on the creation of side events that will enrich the pure sporting event and make it even more special, " says Alverà, who adds: "the location of the Parco Tre Castagni is perfectly suited to a major event of this level. In our Bike Park we have numerous possibilities to change the track and make it different each time. All the athletes who pass through here in fact take with them the memory of the effort, but above all the beauty of the track, as well as the spectacular nature of the area'. The Polisportiva Oltrefersina at work for this Italian Championship, which has many surprises in store.

The build-up to the traditional midsummer 'Giro Lago di Resia' race has already begun: the not-to-be-missed rendezvous with the myriad emotions of one of the most popular events among local runners and others is Saturday, 13 July 2024.The "most exciting race in South Tyrol" will offer its well-established format on the scenic 15.3 km route along Lake Resia, with start and finish in the presence of the mysterious and fascinating submerged bell tower of Curon. The route is predominantly flat, after the start and the first kilometres of the splendid Adige cycle path, we move southwards to reach the village of San Valentino, where once we have crossed the imposing dam we set foot on the ancient Via Claudia Augusta. There are approximately 6 kilometres that follow in the footsteps of the ancient Romans, builders at the time of Emperor Augustus of the historic artery that connected, and still connects, the north and south of Europe, extending the ancient routes across the Alps from the Po Valley to the Danube. It then runs alongside the lake until it reaches the harbour area of Reschen. It is precisely in the final kilometres that an extraordinary view of Lake Resia can be enjoyed, and the most attentive eyes will not fail to catch a glimpse of the submerged bell tower, which must be reached in order to cross the finish line. The main race is reserved for athletes who want to test themselves in a high-level sporting event, while those who do not want to put too much weight on the stopwatch can take part in the 'Just for Fun', which, as the name suggests, is a non-competitive race that only aims to provide fun for its participants. Just to give fun to its participants. For the working team led by Gerald Burger, the organisational routine of the event is going full steam ahead, and the submerged bell tower of Curon 'jutting out' of Lake Resia will be the backdrop to the scenic race, which with its unmistakable environmental and naturalistic charm never ceases to amaze all its participants.

One of the most eagerly awaited trail running events is about to arrive in Trentino. The Primiero Dolomiti Marathon, now in its 9th edition on 6 July, has all the makings of one of the most captivating sporting events in the Primiero Valley. On Saturday, 6 July, runners will be spoilt for choice when it comes to deciding which route to tackle: the Primiero Dolomiti Marathon is not only for long-distance runners, such as the 42 km, but there will also be the opportunity to take part in the shorter, but no less attractive, 26,16 and 6.5 km routes. The 42 km is suitable for those who do not want to miss a single panorama, in fact, the queen race touches on all the territorial excellences, and the starting stage is the most characteristic and natural one in front of Villa Welsperg, home of the Paneveggio Pale di San Martino Nature Park in Val Canali. At the start, the route crosses the Piereni meadows, a magnificent vantage point of the Primiero Valley, with the southern Pale di San Martino behind it. The off-road section begins at the outskirts of San Martino di Castrozza, where the spectacular view of the Pale and the Lagorai opens up. It is at this point that the 26 km will start, a very popular distance requiring an effort comparable to a half marathon, all of which is very runnable. The next destination will be Lake Calaita, the highlight of the event and one of the most photographed places on the Lagorai. A long descent with a couple of hairpin bends will lead to the Lozen Valley and then to Passo Gobbera. Fiera di Primiero will host the arrival of all competitions, as well as the arrival of the 16-km Vanoi Trail, which will start from the village of Zortea. Not to be underestimated is the 6.5 km Family Trail, open to all, adults and children. In the months leading up to the event, the US Primiero is working tirelessly on the preparation of the Primiero Dolomiti Marathon, with President Luigi Zanetel extending an invitation to everyone to participate: "This is a special race that is well suited to the needs of everyone, from the most trained runners to families with children. At the Primiero Dolomiti Marathon, everyone finds space to express their passion for sport and physical activity, it is a beautiful and above all engaging event". The Primiero Valley is an area that smells of excellence, an opportunity to open one's breath. Families, couples and young people can take advantage of Saturday's race to spend a relaxing weekend strolling through the streets of the Primiero villages. Info: www. Primierodolomitimarathon. It

The presence of cyclist and tightrope walker as well as Striscia la Notizia correspondent Vittorio Brumotti is also confirmed, to give the event a more important tone. The Oltrepò Pavese, with its rolling hills dotted with white roads and paths, is preparing to host the mass of cyclists or rather 'gravellisti' who will compete for the title of champion and national champion. That of 29 and 30 June will be a weekend truly full of emotions and Emanuele Bombini, at the head of the Comitato Eventi Sportivi Oltrepò and the Il Branco Cycling School, is more than ready to experience them in the company of the great champions of two wheels, and many are indeed announced, including former teammates and rivals of yesteryear.
