7) "GOLA FURLO" TOUR
This difficult route may reach an altitude of 2,200 metres, leading through Romagnan landscapes to finally arrive to Marche, to the city of art and culture, Urbino, and to Acqualagna, known especially for its famous white tartufo celebrations and the facts that it requires crossing the striking "Furlo's throat". It is a path that makes cyclists melt with nature, good for enthusiasts and sportsmen fond of strong sensations, willing to face up to their own technical abilities.
