L'Ecomaratona del Chianti
In a few lines what is the Ecomaratona del Chianti?
Events such as this are born with the aim of enhancing and highlighting the richness of the landscape, food and wine and traditions of our territories and are characterized within the landscape for the beauty and naturalness of the paths, paths and white roads, for the side events organized, dinner and lunch for athletes, free organized visits to villas, castles and other beauties and tourist resources of different municipalities.
The Ecomaratona was born from these values.
Every year the Ecomaratona del Chianti transforms for about three days the village of Castelnuovo Berardenga in a sparkling location full of young and old people with the common goal of being together, run and well eat.
The event takes place on the third Sunday of October and consists of four competitive running events:
- Ecomaratona 42 KM Chianti Classico;
- Trail 21 KM;
- Trail del Luca 13 KM;
- Staffetta Ecomaratona del Chianti 3x1200 MT alongside other non-competitive distances (Ecopasseggiata 10 KM, "Emozioni nelle Cantine" e Nordic WalkinChianti).
All enriched by many side events for an unforgettable weekend. Among the objectives of the Ecomaratona are health and relaxation for lovers of running that are growing out of measure in recent years, as well as for accompanying persons with organized excursions to wine bars, wineries and good restaurants.
