The "Giro del Sas" will take place on Saturday 4 October 2025. Ten spectacular kilometres of the most picturesque streets in the historic centre of Trento. History, tradition and a prestigious gold medal.
The Giro al Sas is a 10 km race that takes place in the most picturesque streets of the historic centre of Trento, designed in 1907 to honour the city's patron saint, San Vigilio. The race, which was interrupted during the war, has continued steadily since 1945. This important international event, which will celebrate its 78th edition on Saturday 4 October 2025, was won by some of the world's greatest long-distance athletes, including the Italian Stefano Baldini, as well as internationally renowned foreign athletes, such as Paul Tergat, Kenenisa Bekele, Muktar Edris and Jacob Kiplimo.
It is an ancient and fascinating running race that runs on a one-kilometre circuit. After the First World War, the race was called "Giro al Sas", because the chosen route is that of the "stracittadino" ring of the Paseo dei Trentini known by that name and included between Via Roma, Via Oss Mazzurana, Via Mantova and Via San Pietro. A highly spectacular ring to be traveled several times for all the fans who follow the event live every year.
The Giro al Sas has resumed its historic name thanks to the acquisition of the prestigious brand by the Bank for Trentino Alto Adige.
In the early afternoon, the protagonists are the youngest. It will start with the races valid for the CSI provincial youth championships, and then start the magic of the Giro al Sas Kids, a non-competitive promotional event for children from 2 to 8 years old in order to entice them to practice sports.
