Tour of Italy: the geological structure of the stages described by ISPRA

The conformation of the territory of the 18 stages of the Tour of Italy, which crosses the country in many "symbolic" locations from the geological point of view, will be described to the general public following the tour by ISPRA through the project "GeoloGiro", which aims to disclose the wealth of knowledge related to our country.

GEOLOGIRO 2014

 The "GeoloGiro" is a project created to acquaint the general public with the geological and geomorphological characteristics of the routes of the Cycling Tour of Italy through the landscape - configured as a plot of racing uphill, downhill and plais. The combination cycling-territory-science has been a great success in the 2013 Tour of Italy and for this reason it is repeated in the 2014 edition, thanks to a collaboration between ISPRA, National Council of Geologists, Gazzetta dello Sport (organizer of the event), Italian Cycling Federation and RAI. A short space during the program "Anteprima Giro" will be dedicated to the "Geologiro" project.
