Ultra Cammino di Ermenegildo
HIGHLIGHTS
About 50 km loop through Oasi Zegna: a whole new area to discover, in a single running day with an IML guide by your side.
The Cammino di Ermenegildo crosses Oasi Zegna, the large environmental project Ermenegildo Zegna launched in the 1930s: forests, high pastures and wild Valsessera. In this ultra version we compress all three classic stages into a single running day, about 50 km looping from Trivero Valdilana to Bocchetto Sessera and back.
It's your chance to discover a corner of Piedmont that often stays off the usual routes: new valleys, woods and views, with an IML guide who knows the area and stays with you the whole day. A marked route, a small group and ultra distance tackled with complete peace of mind.
Your pace, your day: run at your speed while the guide follows and stays available for pacing, hydration, nutrition and safety. Pre-start briefing included.
