Alessandro Beatrice circuito di Arezzo

In the heart of eastern Tuscany, in Arezzo in Tuscany, the Circuito di Arezzo - Alessandro Beatrice runs an outdoor track a short drive from the Casentino and the Tiber Valley. The name pays tribute to Alessandro Beatrice, an Italian driver who died too young. The site sits in a rural setting typical of the Arezzo hills: ancient olive groves, oak woods, the first Apennine heights and the Pratomagno valleys. It is used by Arezzo locals for outings with friends and by eastern Tuscany holiday-makers looking for a motorsport break in a rural setting.

In its outdoor format, the track offers a rhythmic layout suited to adult and experienced drivers, in the picturesque setting of the Arezzo hills. Several engine sizes are available, with higher-powered karts for regulars used to timed sessions. Conditions follow the Tuscan continental climate: drier and faster in summer, more demanding on rainy autumn days. The site hosts enthusiast sessions, motorsport-focused stag and hen groups, corporate events and club days from the Arezzo and Florence areas.

Arezzo is one hour from Florence, an hour and a quarter from Siena and an hour and a half from Perugia via the A1. The region offers plenty more to see: the medieval historic centre of Arezzo and Piero della Francesca's frescoes in the Basilica of San Francesco (the Legend of the True Cross), Cortona and the MAEC Etruscan museum, the Casentino and the Camaldoli Hermitage, Sansepolcro the birthplace of Piero della Francesca, or a side trip to Florence UNESCO or Siena UNESCO. Karting at the Circuito di Arezzo is a sport option for Arezzo locals and eastern Tuscany travellers.
