Road Cycling in Tuscany

An Intro to cycling in Tuscany

The network of roads that thread in and out of the countryside in Italy is unbelievable !!! Especially in Tuscany, & Mountainous areas such as the Garfagnana, there are roads to almost wherever you want to go. With this network of roads the possibility of road cycling is superb, and as with football, we know cycling is an Italian Passion, which helps with the Italian drivers !!. Most routes take to the quiet backroads crossing over now and then the busy main roads. On these backroads one really gets a feel for the area and the traditions of Italy and gets a chance to see real everyday life working its course. We have put together a selection of day tour routes, click the links,, Have a look see

Garfagnana Cycling

Our tours In the Garfagnana are a world away from that of Central Tuscany. Here in Garfagnana, there is truely mountains and alpine scenary. There is the Highest Moutain in Tuscany, Monte Prado at 2054m, on the main Apennine chain which is a range of high rolling mountains. To the other side of the valley of the Garfagnana, there are the jagged peaks of the Alpi Apuane or the marble mountains, with their imposing outline and features with the highest Monte Pisanino at 1965m. The views from the roads are superb of both these ranges of mountains, along with the sea views of the Versilia coast line to the inland views of the Garfagnana and the Appennines when crossing over some of the main road passes..Tours can be done to the coast, in the mountains & even 5 terre tours.

Central & Southern Tuscany Cycling

People think of Tuscany, and they think of rolling hills of Chianti, villas and cyprus trees which is true in the area of Central and Southern Tuscany. Our tours in Central Tuscany, take in the main road riding areas and quiet backraods in the hills of Chianti, Gaiole, Siena, Volpaia, Radda, Greve, Panzano and Castellina. Riding via Vineyards and past magnificent villas our tours take you off the beaten track. The Tours head as far south in Tuscany, as Scansano & Grosetto and Monte Argentario and the hot springs of Saturnia, to that of Pienza, San Quirico and many others..
