About Revival delle Betulle

In Valduggia, nestled in the heart of the Valsesia valley, the Revival delle Betulle brings the charm of vintage motoring back to the road, retracing the route of the legendary Rally 333 Minuti. Organized by the newly revived Scuderia Crocodilus, this spring day features historic cars, scenic touring routes, and a public exhibition in the town gardens. It is an event that blends sporting heritage, a passion for classic cars, and community spirit, drawing crews and enthusiasts from across Northern Italy and neighboring Switzerland.

The Revival delle Betulle in Valduggia

The Revival delle Betulle is a historic car rally that brings the town of Valduggia, in the Valsesia valley (province of Vercelli, Piedmont), to life every spring. The event is dedicated to vintage vehicles and was created to commemorate and retrace the roads of the legendary Rally 333 Minuti, a race that attracted numerous teams in the past and remains a cherished part of the region's sporting history.

Origins and the Scuderia Crocodilus

The event is organized by the ASD Scuderia Crocodilus Valduggia, a historic motoring association active between 1968 and 1972 and recently reformed to revive the local automotive tradition. The first edition of the Revival in 2025 marked the return of this passion, establishing itself as a sporting and cultural event that engages collectors, clubs, and curious onlookers alike.

A day of engines and community

The heart of the rally is the scenic tour featuring classic cars, which traverse the landscapes of the Valsesia valley, following the original route of the Rally 333 Minuti. Upon their return, the vehicles are displayed in the public gardens of Valduggia, where the public can admire them up close. The day concludes with a convivial lunch at the Salone Polivalente Paolo Franchi.

  • Exhibition of approximately one hundred vintage cars in the public gardens
  • Scenic tour along the roads of the Rally 333 Minuti
