Situated between the mountains of Salto valley and the highest peak of the Appeninian chain, the Gran Sasso ( big stone n.d.r), Salto Lake is a little jewel by a naturalistic and faunistic point of wiew.
Race courses present slight uphills and long flat parts ( all the run is flat).
Local communities of Pescorocchiano, Petrella Salto and the province of Rieti and all the org. staff are diligently operating to make Salto lake race an event ot remember for athletes, coachs, spectators and side people.
