Roll out of Montagnana and the Rocca degli Alberi castle sets the tone before the rivers take over. The Fratta, the Adige, the Guà and the Frassine follow one another as the route unfolds, each a river to ride alongside. Of the 63.6 km, a good share runs unpaved, so the mix of surfaces keeps things varied. Then it's back to Montagnana to close the loop.
