Start at 4 am, from Radda in Chianti, right in the middle of the Tuscan vineyards, while it's still dark.

The route first climbs toward Lecchi, then the summits of Montemartini and Monte Luco, on rugged trails typical of the Chianti hills, between vine rows and oak woods.

It then crosses Gaiole in Chianti, another wine village, before climbing back to Poggio a Barberi and then Monte San Michele, at 895 m, near the end.

The finish is back in Radda in Chianti. The limit sits at 26.5 hours.
