The Vino Velo - Edition 5
Long ToursIn December 2024, the fifth edition of La Vino Velo - The Nasik Wine Hop combined two passions that rarely meet: cycling and wine tasting. Set against the backdrop of the majestic Trimbakeshwar mountain ranges, riders covered 225 kilometers over two and a half days, weaving through Maharashtra's wine country.

The route showcased the region's diverse landscape, from the serene dam backwaters to the challenging climbs typical of Maharashtra's terrain, offering riders a perfect blend of athletic challenge and epicurean pleasure in India's premier wine region.
