Here we propose a ring tour suitable for road bikes for those who want to live emotions and don’t fear climbs. The tour develops along back roads between villages and landscapes, where the healthy air makes these great spots for those who love quiet and natural beauty.
From the town of Jesi, after cycling some km on the plain, the track begins to rise for about 6 km to Cupramontana, the capital of the wine “Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi”, ideal destination for food and wine tourism and cultural tourism.
We follow our own way, which now has a wavy pattern of ups and downs of over 10 km and that brings us to the next stage: Poggio San Marcello, a small town that lies along a mountain ridge.
Now we start climbing of about 8 km until Pian Dell’Elmo (1000 m above sea level) at the foot of San Vicino Mount, where being in contact with nature will leave you an unforgettable and unique memory.
Into the wood’s green, we continue to climb for 4 km and then down to the scenic and isolated village of Elcito (821 m above sea level) where a stop is planned. We are about half way.
Once regenerated, we resume cycling downhill for 9 km, then to climb for another 7 km to the town of Cingoli, perched on the summit of Circe Mount (631m).
The town enjoys a panoramic view that earned her the nickname of “the Marche’s balcony”. We go from Cingoli to Jesi covering about 20 km of panoramic hills before reaching the finishing line.
