The Silk Road Race is a charity rally from Milan to the capital of Tajikistan, Dushanbe.
The Silk Road Race is organised by Partenza Intelligente, a non-profit cultural association based in Lainate (Milan), Italy.
The Silk Road Race typically launches from Villa Litta Visconti Borromeo, a historic palace of the 16th century in Lainate near Milan, Italy, in the last week of July.
The Silk Road Race charges an entry fee to cover the costs of running the event.
All funds generated from charity fees are donated to a project started by Cesvi that provides water and sanitation in the south region of Tajikistan.
