Detailed description (English): * (event calendar and times contained in the City Council Resolution no. 152-2024 of 03/21/2024)
A cultural, amateur-competitive walk, which also includes a social route called “Zerogradini”, created by the Oratorio del Seminarino and the Union of Ex-Students of the Seminarino of the Parish of the Cathedral of Bergamo, organized by ASD Steel Triathlon in collaboration with C.S.I. of Bergamo, Runners Bergamo, Senzacca lavoro di comunità, and "L'Eco di Bergamo".
The purpose of the event is to revitalize the ancient pedestrian access routes to Città Alta and to raise awareness of the monuments and main cultural institutions of the city, leading participants to cross and visit them. The principle adopted by the organizers in their relationship with the various institutions can be summarized as follows: “Millegradini brings visitors to you, you show them who you are and what you do”;
Alongside the tourist and amateur walk, a competitive race similar to a mountain race is held which, although held in the city, has seen an increasing number of participating athletes. The “Zerogradini” was added in 2014.
The event is divided into two days: Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 September.
On Saturday 21 September, the event will take place without a predefined route, so that participants can reach the places to visit starting from different points according to personal itineraries and times.
On Sunday 22, the competitive races will take place: a timed race for couples, an individual timed race organized by Runners Bergamo and the C.S.I.
Detailed description (original language): Followed by the traditional group walk starting from the side street of Viale Papa Giovanni XXIII in front of the headquarters of L’eco di Bergamo.
On the same day, Zerogradini will also take place, which thanks to the collaboration of many associations, groups and entities with a shuttle bus service with reservation will give the opportunity to participate in Millegradini and access places without architectural barriers also to people with mobility problems such as people with disabilities or motor disabilities, elderly people and families with children.
