This evocative Mtb loop tour starts in Urbino, one of the cradles of the Italian Renaissance, and includes a ride to San Bernardino, where the ancient mausoleum where the remains of Duke Federico da Montefeltro are kept.
After the descent to St. Euphemia, the ascent to Mount Pietralata begins, via a climb of about 10 km that reaches almost to the summit.

Other single track variations are possible for the descent if accompanied by the guide.

Along the way, we also pass through the village of Fermignano, with its picturesque medieval tower and bridge over the Metauro River, in front of the Ex Lanificio Carotti in discuso.
