We are proud to announce the organization of the 39th edition of the classic patrol competition in mountai-
nous terrain. As for the previous edition, this year the event will take place in the breathtaking location of
the Triangolo Lariano (Como lake), with the denomination of:
VISCONTEA XXXIX edizione
Memorial 1° Cap. Ercole Pirani
The 2026 edition will be held on 5th, 6th, 7th of June 2026. The base will be in the Asso sports field.
This military sport competition in mountainous environment is aimed to 3 people squads formed by
active duty personnel in the Armed Forces as well as to people belonging to Army-Associations, Italian and
foreign as well as similar other associations and/or equivalents .
This edition includes, weather conditions permitting, a helicopter transfer and is also proposed as the
opening race of the season, having slightly more limited difficulty and duration characteristics compared
to other similar Italian and European events.
The event will take place in the spectacular landscape, framed by the Lake of Como and the Alps, which
lend perfectly to the patrol reconnaissance and intervention theme.
The competition will range from: daytime patrol in mountainous environment for medium-short-range
reconnaissance; intelligence and control of the territory; inter force-communications and coordination
activities; possibility of interventions triggered by opportunities.
While remaining true to the tradition of the event, now in its 39rd edition, the innovations tested in recent
years are confirmed this year too, such as: the evaluation and scoring system according to modern balancing
criteria, with evaluation of the “time” trials using the “Z” points ”, and the use of GPS and smartphones during
the race course (their use is not permitted during the special tests).
The tentative schedule of the event is :
June 5th, Friday Logistic accommodation, registration with the Organization, presentation and eve-
ning briefings with the delivery of the supplied material for the race.
June 6th, Saturday Competition and debriefing. Subsequently there will be a Social dinner at the camp
at the facilities of the Pro Loco of Asso
June 7th Sunday Ceremonies, parade, awards, speeches and greetings.
