What is the 2024 Veneto Classic Route?
The race starts in the town of Soave then heads east on a flat run through the vineyards to the first serious climb on the route, the Salita della Rosina which it tackles twice on a large loop before heading onto the finishing circuits around Bassano Del Grappa.
Once in the outskirts of town the race takes on four laps which each include the short but viciously steep cobbled climb of La Tisa before starting the final run in up a climb that goes by the name of 'Diesel Farm'. This 1.4 kilometre gravel ramp with gradients over 10% is then followed by the even steeper ascent of the Strada Soarda which has an average of 13% before the plunge to the line in Bassano.
