Italy Cycle Holidays: “La Dolce Vita Bike” itineraries

New exciting routes for your Italy cycle holidays

 

We will ride along roads and paths that are sometimes just dirt tracks to discover our magical inland area, which boasts a wealth of characteristic sites, enchanting villages, fragrances and colours.

All types of bikes are welcome; what’s important is that they have enough gears. The routes cross both flat and hillier areas, with some slightly longer climbs that alternate with delightful descents. Ideal for “fair-weather” cyclists with normal levels of fitness and training. All you need to know is we ‘ll be cycling for about 4/5 hours.

5 guided itineraries a week covering between 40 and 60 km. Excursions are different every day and take place over two weeks in the period running from 12/3 to 5/11.
In two Italy Cycle Holidays weeks you’ll never follow the same route twice.
In summer (July and August), cycling activities continue with 1 or 2 groups, with programmes adapted according to the number and type of participants.
