The small town Montegallo lies at the foot of the Vettore mountain.

The origin of the name “Monsampolo” comes from the name of a Frankish knight, called “Monù de Saint Paul”.

Some historical notes make us believe that the town Montefalcone dates back to 705 AD, when the “Curtis Montis Falconis” was assigned to the Farfense monks.

The old town centre of Monteprandone maintains intact its old walls and typical alleys. San Giacomo della Marca (1393-1476) and the painter Carlo Allegretti (1555-1622) were born here.

This is a quite hard and long path suitable for well-trained bikers.

Since 2003 certified as one of “the most beautiful Italian towns”, this charming medieval village sits on top of five different hills.

Un susseguirsi di dolci colline, lievi pendii… queste strade si dovrebbero percorrere in carrozza.

L’itinerario percorre, per buona parte, la strada del ROSSO PICENO SUPERIORE, vino a denominazione di origine controllata(D.O.C.); nonchè alcuni tratti interessati al fenomeno calanchivo (CALANCHI).

Grottammare is a nice town of the “Riviera delle Palme”, situated in an enviable geographical position, near a wonderful valley; each year many tourists choose it in summer as preferred location.

Leaving Piazza della Libertà we head north for 190 m, cross the bridge, turn left onto the road along the river Sant'Egidio, via E. Ruzzi.
