Sunday, April 24 2016 will witness to a sporting event that has few equals in the national and international extreme sports scene both because it is very challenging for the athletes and also for it being embedded in a very suggestive background.
This is the third edition of the Ultra Trail Mugello, a race of two distances, 23km and 60km, which takes place on the Apennine ridges of the Mugello, in the forest complex Giogo-Casaglia.
The Ultra Trail Mugello has also become a film entitled “A step closer”. We leave you with some footage of this beautiful event and the words that accompanied the release of the film:
“A corner of our land, the Mugello in Tuscany is a rich Apennine pearl of nature and history”.
The district called Giogo-Casaglia is part of the regional forest property and its 6800 hectares of mountains, forests, streams and waterfalls is one of the richest natural environments in Italy and the ideal habitat for a large number of animal and plant species.
Two friends with a passion for sports and lovers of their land, share the dream of making these enchanted places known to the whole world thus giving them new life.
For this they have developed a sporting event: Ultra Trail Mugello which has also become a permanent path conceived as a journey to the places, culture and history”
Combined with this famous sport event there’s the tourist attraction of the Mugello. Why not spend a few days here in total ralax in a historical villa or lavish farm house resort? Maybe you prefer a cosy B&B agritourism not far from the Ultra Trail Mugello tracks. Perhaps you want to see Florence without giving up some ultra trail training.
