In this context, the Fiorino Mud 400 stands out as a must-attend event, starting on September 21 from Hu Norcenni Girasole Village in Figline Valdarno, heading to Maremma’s PuntAla Camp & Resort, and returning to Figline on September 22, promising unique thrills.
An Intense Recon Weekend
To ensure everything is perfect for the event, the Fiorino Mud team began scouting the 400 km route through the heart of Tuscany. Testing each section of the trail, they aim to provide an unforgettable experience for participants.
The summer heat tested the explorers’ endurance, but the effort was well worth it, rewarded by the beauty of the route and the discovery of previously unknown white roads.
