About Vittorio Veneto–Cansiglio

The Vittorio Veneto–Cansiglio Hill Climb is one of the oldest uphill car races in Italy, founded in 1924 and with over a century of history. The competition winds its way up Provincial Road 422 between Vittorio Veneto and the Cansiglio plateau, on a challenging course of curves and hairpin bends. Valid for the Italian Mountain Speed Championship (CIVM Nord) and organized by the Automobile Club Treviso, it attracts drivers and enthusiasts from all over Italy for a weekend of motorsport in the Marca Trevigiana.

One of the oldest hill climbs in Italy

The Vittorio Veneto–Cansiglio Hill Climb is an uphill car race with a great tradition, whose origins date back to 1924: with over a hundred years of history, it is among the longest-running motorsport events in the national scene. The race takes place near Vittorio Veneto, in the province of Treviso, climbing towards the Cansiglio plateau.

The course

The course runs along Provincial Road 422 for approximately 5,930 meters, with an elevation gain of 450 meters and an average gradient of 7.65%. A course described as "tricky and selective," which tests drivers with curves and hairpin bends, from the start in Mezzavilla to the finish in Valsalega, in the municipality of Fregona.

Italian Mountain Speed Championship

The hill climb is valid for the Italian Mountain Speed Championship (CIVM) Nord and is organized by the Automobile Club Treviso according to ACI Sport regulations. After the stop in 2025, caused by a landslide on SP422, the race returns with an edition dubbed "the hill climb of resurgence," confirming the strong bond between this competition and the territory of the Marca Trevigiana.
