Stoppani Vertical Race - Goinup
Organized by SKY LARIO RUNNERS, this is the seventh and final event of the Go In Up Affari & Sport circuit. The event offers two modes: a Competitive Race (requiring a valid competitive medical certificate) with a maximum of 400 athletes, and a Non-Competitive Walk open to all ages.
Race Description:
The race starts in Versasio, near the small church of Beata Vergine Assunta, offering a spectacular view of Lecco. After a short paved section, the course turns towards Deviscio and then joins trail 1, a classic mule track leading to Resegone. The cobblestone path continues for 1.2 km with an average gradient of 16% until reaching Costa alta. From there, the most challenging part of the trail begins, with the final 500 meters featuring a 26% gradient on a rocky path leading to the finish at Rifugio Stoppani, a stunning viewpoint.
After the race, participants can enjoy a pasta party and beer at the Piazzale della Funivia. The final awards ceremony for the race and the entire Go In Up circuit will take place, accompanied by music.
