The Eddy Merckx route is an intense and physical journey. Like the hunger for victory of one of the world's cycling heroes. It starts in Riccione and goes to Montescudo, a medieval Malatesta stronghold, just over 20 kilometres from the Riviera: a landscape full of vineyards and cellars.

Not far from the sea, you can immerse yourself in gravel paths and white roads with a marvellous and characteristic landscape: Vineyards, olive groves and wheat fields. Before reaching the village of Montescudo, you can admire Trarivi, a hill on the Gothic line, devastated by the battles of the Second World War. You then reach the highest point of the route - 386 metres above sea level.
