About the Event

Conquer the iconic mountains of the Apuan Alps at the Tuscany Extreme, a legendary Italian granfondo set for Sunday, June 7, 2026. This grueling 127km cycling challenge starts in the historic spa town of Bagni di Lucca and tests riders with over 3,200 meters of climbing across three timed 'cronoscalate' mountain ascents. You'll face the sacred monster of the San Pellegrino in Alpe, a climb so demanding it gives the "Extreme" event its name, alongside the punishing ramps of Vergemoli Calomini and the final test of Palleggio San Cassiano. This sixth edition offers a renewed route through the heart of Tuscany, weaving past ancient villages and across epic passes like the Abetone. It's more than a race; it's a pilgrimage for cyclists seeking to prove themselves on some of Italy's most storied and brutal roads. Experience the raw passion of Italian cycling culture, complete with full race services, as you etch your name into the legend of this extreme Tuscan adventure.
