The project

Ride to tell the Franciacorta
Franciacortino is the cycling route in the heart of Franciacorta. An invitation to discover hills, villages, and secondary roads with a slow and curious gaze. Every stage is a story, every itinerary a point of view on the territory.
Why do I do this
I love the Franciacorta and the bike: I put the two together, to share stories, places, and routes. Stage after stage, I build a live archive, which enhances the country and the people living there.
What can you find on Franciacortino
Stages of the great round in a continuous update; reviews of tourist routes already traced with practical advice, interviews to the rider and live the Franciacorta; photos and stories to inspire your next exit.
Advice before starting
The information are ispirazionali and based on existing routes: always check condition, security and practicability. Ride responsibly.
You and territory are the protagonists
The Franciacorta project has begun and will continue stage by stage until it reaches all the municipalities of Franciacorta, but you and the territory are the true protagonists of the project. Take your bike, choose an itinerary, let your gaze roam free: the rest will follow naturally.

Values

Territory

The bicycle is like a tool to discover, experience, and get to know the territory, entering into a relationship with it. Roads, villages, landscapes, stories, people, activities, and more or less known places become part of an experience to be known, respected, and shared.

Sport

Getting moving, overcoming one's limits, and finding in cycling an opportunity for well-being, discovery, and sharing. The destination doesn't matter, but rather the journey, the experience, and the possibility of actively and consciously experiencing the territory.

Education

Living in and traversing a territory means, first and foremost, taking care of it and taking care of others. Franciacortino promotes a culture of civil coexistence, based on awareness, mutual respect, and the responsibility of every person: pedestrian, cyclist, and motorist.

Every road is a shared space, and every behavior can contribute to making it safer, more welcoming, and more inclusive.
