Go down in history with this series of randonnée along the ancient Via Claudio Augusta, a road dating back to the Roman Empire, one of Europe’s longest and nicest touristic cycle routes today.
Four randonées will be held on May 8th and 9th, 2021 on the AUDAX ARI calendar: 300 km’s from Munich to Bolzano, 300 km’s from Bolzano to Ferrara, 200 km’s from Bolzano to Ferrara or the 600-km challenge from Munich to Ferrara: a unique way to cross Europe by bike.
Two days to get from Munich to Ferrara on a bike: an idea that inspired cyclists across Italy and abroad. More than 300 participants faced the rain and cold weather on the Alps’ climbs last edition: how many of you this year? Witoor is ready to offer you an unforgettable event for its fifth edition through a mix of bike love and tourism: from Germany to Italy passing through Austria, different landscapes and views, from mountains to plains.
Participants will be a part of history pedalling through the woods of Bavaria, the Austrian dirt climbs, along rivers and breathing nature’s perfume.

Randonnée (literally “long-distance ride”) was born in Italy, in 1897, but established roots in France in the last century, developing a licence system that regulates events. It has returned to Italy since 1993 and a rich calendar of events is managed by Audax Italia. Randonées are non-competitive rides, they are spontaneous gatherings among cyclists that forget about stopwatches and set on long rides only driven by genuine sportsmanship.
Rando Imperator is a randonnée that follows the path of the ancient via Claudia Augusta: built during the Roman Empire, it is now a cycle touristic path that takes your breath away, crossing the Alps between Bavaria, Austria and Italy.
Witoor promotes since 2013 its own version of randonées: a more personal and less competitive use of bikes where each participant build their own story through passion, effort and enthusiasm.
Choose your Rando Imperator: 600 km from Munich to Ferrara, 300 km from Munich to Bolzano, 300 km from Bolzano to Ferrara, 200 km from Bolzano to Mantua.
