The Tuscan Wine Trail - The Most Breathtaking Cycling Routes You Can Imagine
For five days in August, you will be transported back to ancient Roman times, to the magnificence of the Renaissance, and to one of the cradles of great wine making. Think of endless rows of Cypress trees and the vineyards of Panzano, Greve, Castellani, Gaiole and Radda. And where Da Vincie was believed to have captured, for eternity, his Mona Lisa's smile.
There are two cycles planned for each day - 100km and 50km. The choice is yours. Each group will have an experienced road captain and a support car. And if you'd rather take a break , you're free to sit by one of the swimming pools at the hotel and give tired muscles a break.
Exclusive day/wine tours can be arranged.
