Cycling Epic of Italy Anticipating New Sporting and Touristic Opportunities

The Giro 2024 brings together some of the world's best cyclists for races in Italy. From May 4th to 26th, sports enthusiasts will have the opportunity to witness an important stage of the competition as the Tour of Italy embarks on its journey, offering 21 stages of intense competition, less than three months before the 2024 Paris Olympics.

The Grand Depart of this cycling adventure will take place in Venaria Reale, marking the beginning of a journey spanning 3,400.8 kilometers and a cumulative elevation gain of 44,650 meters, culminating in Rome. The Giro 2024 promises to be an exciting spectacle, with legendary climbs, picturesque landscapes, and thrilling individual races.

Particular attention will be drawn to the famous Mortirolo during the 15th stage, promising moments of adrenaline. Last year saw Slovenian Primoz Roglic clinch victory, closely followed by compatriot Tadej Pogacar, the recent winner of Liege-Bastogne-Liege. This year, Pogacar is the clear favorite, with the absence of the defending champion and Belgian star Wout Van Aert, still recovering from a fall in the À Travers la Flandre race.

The Giro 2024, the first Grand Tour of the season, comes after the spring classics and before the Tour de France, the 2024 Paris Olympics, and the Vuelta. The Giro 2024 will not only interest cyclists but also attract tourists from around the world.

Watching the stages of this spectacular race can be an unforgettable experience for lovers of active recreation and sports. The beautiful landscapes of Italy along the route will inspire tourists to take romantic walks and photoshoots. Additionally, the opportunity to visit various cities and regions of Italy during the races will make the journey even more interesting and diverse. This huge cycling event will add color and energy to Italy's culture and tourism, capturing the attention of people from all over the world with its beauty and sporting spirit.
