The Giro d’Italia is not only the most beloved race in Italy, but also a driver of value for the gorgeous territories it crosses.
For the 2026 edition, this commitment is further strengthened through a concrete environmental regeneration project carried out together with VAIA, Sustainability Partner of the Giro d’Italia 2026.

Three stages, three territories, three collective reforestation initiatives open to everyone, joining forces to leave a positive mark along the route of the Corsa Rosa.

The Project

Leaving a positive impact on the territory is at the heart of the initiative: a tangible action that turns the Giro’s passage into an opportunity for care and restoration.

Collective tree-planting activities open to everyone:
– 3 reforestation days across Veneto, Trentino and Friuli
– 3 areas to be regenerated
– the involvement of local communities, partners and stakeholders.

On VAIA’s dedicated page you can find all the information about the initiative as well as register for one of the reforestation days in the indicated territories.

A model that brings together sport, environment and community involvement, helping to enhance Italy’s natural heritage.

A concrete commitment to local territories

Each stage involved in this project becomes a place of action and awareness.
Reforestation is not just a symbolic gesture, it is a concrete intervention aimed at:

– regenerating local ecosystems
– increasing biodiversity
– raising community awareness about the value of trees and the environment.

A way to transform the passage of the Giro into a lasting legacy.

Sport and Sustainability

For years, the Giro d’Italia has promoted projects dedicated to sustainability, such as Ride Green and BiciScuola.
In this context, the collaboration with VAIA – Sustainability Partner 2026 – represents yet another tangible step forward: combining the power of sport with environmental protection through concrete and measurable actions.

A lasting legacy

The Giro travels across Italy, but leaves much more than a nice memory. It leaves a tangible mark, made of trees, regenerated territories and engaged communities.

A green trail that continues to grow, stage after stage.
