The skyrace that challenges the Resegone starting from the center of Lecco
Resegup is the symbolic skyrace of Lecco, a unique mountain race: it starts from the heart of the city, in Piazza Garibaldi, and climbs to the summit of the Resegone, the famous mountain with a jagged profile that dominates the Lecco landscape and which Manzoni described in "The Betrothed". It is one of the classics of Italian skyrunning, capable of uniting the urban and alpine dimensions.
The course measures 24 kilometers with over 1,800 meters of positive elevation gain: from the start in the city center, you climb to the summit of the Resegone and then descend back down, with the finish line again in Piazza Garibaldi. A technical and demanding test that challenges the endurance and skill of the best skyrunners.
Resegup is much loved: the 1,200 bibs available for the 2026 edition sold out in just a few days, confirming the event's great following. The start and finish remain in the heart of the city, with the athletes' village, bag drop, refreshment area, and all services concentrated in Piazza Garibaldi.
More than just a race, Resegup is a celebration of sport and mountains that involves the entire city. The arrival in the square, welcomed by the public, is one of the most exciting moments of Lecco's sporting year. An event that tells the mountaineering soul of Lecco, in the Province of Lecco and in the Lombardy Region, a city that has made its relationship with the mountains an identity trait.
Resegup 2026, the 15th edition, will be held on Saturday, June 6, with a start at 2:30 PM from Piazza Garibaldi, in the center of Lecco. The race confirms its established format: 24 kilometers in length and over 1,800 meters of positive elevation gain, with the climb to the summit of the Resegone and the final descent towards Piazza Garibaldi.
The 1,200 available bibs are already sold out. The start and finish remain in the heart of the city, with the athletes' village, bag drop, refreshment area, and services concentrated in Piazza Garibaldi. The race pack includes a trail running backpack.
The start and finish are in Piazza Garibaldi, in the center of Lecco, reachable on foot from the train station and by car from the SS36.
The 1,200 bibs for the 2026 edition are already sold out. Bib distribution takes place on Friday, June 5, from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and Saturday, June 6, from 9:30 AM to 1:00 PM.
Even without a bib, it's worth attending the start at 2:30 PM and the finish in Piazza Garibaldi, among the most spectacular moments of the race.
