Excitement is growing for the Giro d’Italia, particularly regarding the high mountain stage that will take place in Brentonico on May 27, followed by the departure from San Michele all’Adige the next day. In preparation for this internationally significant sporting event, local monuments, including the Archpriest Church of Saints Peter and Paul and the former Augustinian convent, were illuminated in pink on January 29 as a celebration of the cycling competition. This event presents a unique opportunity to showcase the beauty of Trentino and engage the community in a highly appealing experience.
The route for the sixteenth stage includes five mountain passes and nearly 5000 meters of elevation gain, making it crucial for the overall standings. The mayor of Brentonico expressed enthusiasm for the arrival of the pink caravan, emphasizing how sporting events like this can strengthen historical ties with the race and promote the Plateau and the Baldo Park. Additionally, the passage of the Giro Women is also scheduled for 2025, further highlighting the significance of Trentino in the landscape of national sporting events.
