Abruzzo · Tuesday, July 14, 2026
The Ultra Trail Gran Sasso Asso is a corsa (running), trail running, and ultra event held on Tuesday, July 14, 2026.
XTERRA Abruzzo Trail Run is a unique running experience through the trails of the Sirente Velino Natural Park, in the heart of Abruzzo, where nature is still wild, forests stretch out like ancient tales, and mountains rise majestically against a clear sky. For some, it’s a challenge against time and themselves, for others, a way to reconnect with nature, without rushing, listening to the deep heartbeat of the earth.
5:00 AM. Headlamp on 🔦. The Anzasca Valley is still asleep 😴, and you are already there, staring into the dark at a wall of ice and rock that touches the clouds ⛅️. Welcome to the Monterosa East Himalayan Trail 🏔️.
Imagine yourself participating in the Ascoli Piceno Half Marathon (Mezza Maratona di Ascoli Piceno) , a must-do race for any respectable half-marathon runner. It takes place in the splendid city of Ascoli Piceno, which masterfully combines culture, history, and nature. 🌳
