Winter 2022 - Spring 2023.
The cycle path starts from Recanati port, passes next to the Hotel House, continues between the ecological island and the purifier, Recanati port is a municipality very attentive to cycling tourism...
After crossing the first bridge over the Potenza, turn left and pass between an old (disused) mill. After you.
Turn right and return to the paved road because a 5-metre bridge has never been built.
After a while, turn left and return to the cycle path.
After the flood this winter (22/23), thousands of trees were cut down to drain the river with the result that there are no more dens and nests, on the other hand the river has become a straight line without natural barriers.
Proceeding you arrive at the Terra e Vita cycle track, after the wooden bridge you proceed to the left, a little further on there are barriers (orange plastic) because the embankment has collapsed (it has always collapsed at that point for twenty years ), proceeding you arrive at the crossing of the provincial road. The designers and great connoisseurs of cycling and walking needs did not think of a crossing under the bridge. Cross the road (be careful that there is little visibility) and continue easily up to the Becerica bridge, pass under it, cross the river on a dedicated space and continue on the opposite bank of the river. Shortly after , small wooden bridge on the right , continue .
Shortly after a metal bridge, another barrier, because (here as always) the river has taken back the space.
Carry on like this, up to S.Firmano. And here the cycle path ends , so when you get to S.Firmano , go towards the parking lot that you see in front, follow the road (you can see the basilica on the left) and continue towards the mountain (low traffic road) .
After a while you will find a micro-sign (Pane e Luna) excellent focaccia, continue and you will be on the road to Macerata (on the left) and Sambucheto (on the right) (strada Madonna del Monte), near the crossroads (on the left) c 'is a commemorative stone of the last war.
Conclusions, the cycle path ends in S.Firmano further on it's a joke, the road surface is excellent for MTB and Gravel, no racing bikes, other bikes if you think "if I walk, I also bike" go easy.
You can stop at Terra e Vita (where there is a mini velodrome) to eat some fruit. Kilometers from the sea in Sambucheto, about 30.

Highlight • Cycleway

nice stretch along the riverside that extends from Becerica to Porto Recanati it is a pity that the last stretch is not passable and you have to make a detour
