Vittoria Park: in Italy a visionary project dedicated to the world of bicycles

A colossal project that required an investment of 10 million euros. All cycling disciplines are embraced with, a few meters away, all the part concerning the design and the Vittoria product tests.

With its 50.000 square meters, Vittoria Park is certainly one of the most impressive cycling realities on Italian soil. The park is located at the Vittoria Spa headquarters in Brembate (between Bergamo and Milan) and is clearly visible from the motorway: in fact, it is located just 500m from the Capriate exit.

ROUTES

Vittoria Park includes more than 4km of road, mtb and gravel routes. To go specifically, around the park there is a completely asphalted part, about 1,5km, to allow you to create an interesting ring: during this stretch we can also find sections that replicate the Paris-Roubaix, the Strade Bianche, or stretches beaten dirt roads that allow you to have fun with gravel bikes.

Do not miss the MTB Area with 3 bike park-style drops, a rock garden and a flow part where you can recreate a route cross country. The jump line is very interesting, about 400 meters long with 5 well-made panettone.

PUMP TRACK AND AIRBAG

In all this context, there is a Pump Track signed by Velosolutions, which will host international events. There is also an impressive airbag area with 3 different jumps to be able to exercise in the tracks or simply to try to jump safely. There is also a Skill Area very suitable for young people or adults who want to get involved.

ACCOMMODATION

All Vittoria riders were present at the inauguration such as Tommaso Francardo, Marcello Pesenti, Daniele Braidot, Filippo Fontana, Gaia Tormena. At Vittoria Park also the Santa Cruz team with Martina Berta, Sara Cortinovis and the coach Andrea Tiberi. Julien Absalon was also present as DS of the BMC team, a team supported by Vittoria. On the Hospitalty side, guests can use the Vittoria House which contains a cafeteria, an area dedicated to meetings, a shop with Vittoria products, a workshop and related changing rooms with showers.

Visitors can also relax and enjoy the park itself. In fact, much attention has been paid to nature and its glance: a real green oasis one step away from the motorway. All this was born with the collaboration of Laura Gatti's “Bosco Verticale”.

Possibility to rent bikes with gravel, road, e-bike models and cross country.

PRICES AND OPENING HOURS

The entrance to Vittoria Park, including insurance, costs € 38 for the whole day on Thursdays and Fridays, while on Saturdays it goes up to € 45 per day. Activate the half day with reduced prices.
Companions and visitors can enter for free.

  • Thursday and Friday: 12:30 - 20:00

  • Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday: CLOSED.

CONCLUSION

Prices too high? We have received many comments regarding this aspect. Yes, certainly more popular prices have been seen but behind it there is an important investment (10 million euros) that has not been seen often in Italy. It should therefore emerge that this is a project we must be proud of: having such a reality in Italy is a source of pride for our country and certainly many people in the sector abroad will envy it. Having said that, we can think about the price: the cost of a single day, especially on Saturdays, is above average and at the moment there is no seasonal advantageous price that can allow young athletes who want to train and not enter occasionally to fully use the park ( especially on Pump and Airbag structures). We were told that Vittoria is evaluating a more advantageous seasonal price so we look forward to further developments.

[email protected] I am a fan of everything that has 2 wheels: at a young age I practiced road and track cycling (Italian Allievi champion). At the age of 18 I passed into the cross country competing at national/international level as an Under23. Past Elite, I made the choice to take things more lightly from a training point of view, and my love for gravity disciplines was born, training me as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made passion my profession by managing 2 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Bike Center Elba and Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
