Destinations #2 Italy unknown
Second release of Destinations, Alvento's best-seller which has no equal in the publishing panorama dedicated to two wheels.
This is a collection of 13 bikepacking reports in unusual locations in Italy, or in well-known locations interpreted differently.
Road or gravel, what matters is that we have cycled, described and photographed all the routes.
20 pages for each of them (4 more pages per destination compared to the first version), in the extraordinary 27x42 cm format which offers an immersive experience in the images: in the double-page spread, the photographs are almost like posters.
Each destination is accompanied by a double page of technical and information sheets, maps and a digital package on komoot with GPX track, highlights and suggestions for the route.
The partnership with komoot also includes a code for each itinerary to unlock the mapping of the area for Destinations readers.
