Starting point is the wooden footbridge across the Marecchia river in Rimini.
Set out towards the hills on the gravelled strip along the banks. During the trip, you will encounter some digging and construction work, chipping, gravel patches and transport as well as river sand.
Following the main path you reachafter almost 8 km – a clearing with an abandoned olive press. Further on you arrive at a Mutoid camp (nomadic foreign artists), and leaving the camp behind, you then turn off to the right on a paved road towards Santarcangelo to then continue on the bike path to the centre of the town.
After crossing the Marecchia river you once again follow a dirt road to Rimini. In the historical centre of that town the Augustus Arch, Tiberius bridge (both from the Roman ear) and the Malatesta fortress are well worth a visit.
