Finale Ligure: Italy's Purpose-Built Enduro Capital on the Ligurian Coast
Finale Ligure is a small Ligurian coastal town where the limestone hills directly behind the beach hold several hundred kilometres of purpose-developed enduro trail. The Enduro World Series has raced here multiple times. The town has rebuilt its service economy around mountain biking. By most measures, it is the most complete enduro destination in Europe.

The training block, the race-week disciplines, and the gear decisions are all oriented toward that single requirement.
