TOUR DESCRIPTION

Pisa - Florence

Slow-paced cycling in Tuscany.

The start and ?nishing points of this stunningly beautiful tour are indeed the best-known cities in Tuscany. The leaning tower of Pisa, as well as the Ponte Vecchio bridge in Florence, have a magical attraction to all visitors from around the world. On your bike, however, you also get to experience the - just as amazing - scenery in between. This also means that each place that you stay in each evening, due to its beauty, would be worth a separate holiday! Slow-paced and exciting cycling days await with lots of time to not only enjoy cultural but also scenic highlights. This cycling tour across a stunning area of Tuscany will be forever engrained in your memory!

Tour character ;

Daily short and slow-paced tours leave plenty of time to explore the cities. Overall easy terrain with only one longer ascent each day. You cycle on lovely side roads and occasionally also on dirt tracks. Only near the bigger cities, moderate tra?c is unfortunately unavoidable.

In the evening welcome briefing and bike fitting. We recommend an initial visit of the magnificent old part of town that day.

From the square Piazza dei Miracoli, home of the ‚leaning tower’, you cycle on lovely paths towards lake Massaciuccoli. Here, you can enjoy the amazing views from a panorama road onto the lake and the Tyrrhenian Sea. Past countless olive groves until the river Serchio and continue along its cycle path to the centre of Lucca.

Note several Baroque villas situated directly along the cycle route to Montecarlo. Located on top of a hill, this village is well-known for its excellent white wine – there is only a limited number of places in Tuscany for this grape to grow in such outstanding quality. Sampling a glass in one of the charming Enotecas is a must. Finally, you cycle through the Valdinievole valley where you will reach the famous spa resort of Montecasino.

Cycle through olive groves on small paths from Montecatini to Vinci, Leonardo’s birthplace. Most impressive is the da Vinci museum capturing the genius of all his inventions.

Soon after just a few kilometres follows the biggest and most challenging ascent this week. As a reward afterwards, you get a short break in the small Medieal village of Montevettolini as well as fantastic views on to the Arno valley during the rest of the tour. Then onwards to Pistoia, which is not so well-known by tourists and called ‚Little Florence’. With its charming squares and impressive churches one is indeed reminded of the neighbouring town Florence.
