About Coppa Bernocchi
A Centenary Classic
The Coppa Bernocchi is one of the oldest and most prestigious cycling races in Italy. Founded in 1919 and organized by US Legnanese 1913, it inextricably links its name to the city of Legnano, in the Province of Milan, of which it is one of the symbolic sporting events. In 2026, it reaches its 107th edition, confirming a longevity that places it among the great classics of the international calendar.
The 2026 Route
The 2026 edition covers 174 kilometers with 1,888 meters of elevation gain. The official start is from San Giorgio su Legnano, after the gathering in Piazza San Magno in Legnano, and the finish is in Via XX Settembre. Among the characteristic sections are the intermediate sprints in Parabiago, Nerviano, and Cerro Maggiore, and the climbs of the "Piccolo Stelvio" and "Caramamma" in the Olona Valley, which often decide the race.
