On the spectacular trails of the legendary Granfondo MTB race in Capoliveri,Elba Island.

The Capoliveri Legend Cup takes place on a technical and never mundane course, full of historic trails and dirt roads in the striking scenery of Mount Calamita, within the natural “gym” of the Capoliveri Bike Park .

A continuous up and down through high vantage points, beaches, mines, vineyards and all the nature of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park in this southern slice of Elba.

The 14th competitive event was held on May 6. Here we publish the 54-kilometer Classic race course.

Technical description:
The route is all rideable and has no particular technical passages. There are numerous single-tracks and trails that require good riding technique due to steep sections and, depending on the time of year, dry and uneven ground.

Important to moderate speed near homes and crowded areas. Keep right on wide dirt roads.
