Tipi Percorsi
**Update on 22nd September 2020**
The following text and the linked "hikes" routes are part of the Gallo Nero Bike Day event on last 20th September 2020. Together with the organising body we decided to let the routes be available all year round, hoping that more and more people decide to cycle on our roads. If you want to visit wineries, restaurants and businesses who joined the event, please call in advance because special menus and prices and opening times may vary without notification.
The two routes, the Granfondo (135 km, elevation difference 2621 m) and the Mediofondo (83 km, elevation difference 1526 m), offer breathtaking views of our countryside, the ultimate iconic Italian landscape. Starting in Radda in Chianti, where cyclists can admire the old city walls, and ending in Greve in Chianti, the birthplace of explorer and navigator Giovanni da Verrazzano, the route breezes by vineyards in the sunny Golden Basin of Panzano in Chianti, cuts through San Casciano and then dips down towards Castellina in Chianti, chosen by Michelangelo Buonarroti as his personal retreat. The long route meanders through the southernmost part of the territory, among lush vineyards and breathtaking hills, like the ones of San Regolo and Castagnoli. Both routes descend and rise several times, but don’t include highly technical incline climbs, allowing participants to enjoy the amazing landscape in its most glorious moment – the end of summer.

The cycle path is suitable for all types of users and, in some sections, is divided into two carriageways. Along the route there are several tunnels that automatically light up as the cyclist passes. Alongside the beauty of the alpine and foothill areas, the route reaches villages and hamlets of remote charm, often located in isolated positions, such as Oneta or Cornello dei Tasso, where time seems to stand still. In these places, the evening lighting of the tunnels also offers breathtaking scenery.
From the cycle path at the bottom of the valley there are numerous itineraries that are perfect for an E-bike trip to discover the hamlets and the beautiful natural slopes of this valley.
What to see in San Pellegrino Terme
A town famous throughout the world for its mineral water of the same name and for its thermal baths that enjoy thermal water that gushes out naturally at 26 degrees. San Pellegrino Terme underwent considerable development in the early 1900s, as evidenced by a number of buildings dating back to the Belle Époque in Art Nouveau style, such as the Casino, which can be visited during the summer, the Grand Hotel and the Spa. The Tempio dei Caduti (Temple of the Fallen), a monument dating back to 1924 and now housing the remains of those who fell during the two world wars, is also interesting.
What to see in San Giovanni Bianco
San Giovanni Bianco is a small town in Val Brembana that owes its name to the town's patron saint and to the presence of numerous outcrops and quarries of light-coloured limestone. The town has a medieval layout and its numerous Romanesque bridges are still passable. In recent years, considerable investments have also been made in the development of the via Priula, built during the 16th century to give Venice, then ruler of the area, a commercial outlet to the north without having to pass through the territories of the Duchy of Milan, then under Spanish rule, with consequent duties amounting to as much as half the value of the cargo.
San Giovanni Bianco is set in a valuable naturalistic context in the middle of the Brembana valley and lying in a basin with imposing peaks, it offers excellent views and numerous possibilities for excursions to the surrounding mountains.
With the closure of the railway in 1966, it experienced periods of depopulation and closure to the outside world. Today, the presence of the Val Brembana cycle route is giving new impetus to tourism, becoming itself a destination for cycle tourism.
What to see in Cornello dei Tasso
Cornello is a village of medieval origin that owes its name to the ancient Tasso family, whose most famous member is undoubtedly Torquato Tasso. The Tasso family already had a company of 'post masters' in the mid-12th century and came to manage the mail service of the Habsburg Empire during the 16th century. In the Middle Ages, the village of Cornello was an important centre for trade and the passage of people and goods thanks to the presence of the via Mercatorum, the merchants' road, which connected Bergamo to Valtellina and linked some of the most important centres in the Brembana Valley.
When, in 1592, the construction of the Priula Road began, commissioned by the Venetian government to directly connect Bergamo to Valtellina without passing through Spanish territories, Cornello dei Tasso found itself isolated and lost its commercial importance, giving way to a period of decline. The new road, in fact, passed along the valley floor, separating the village from the new road system. The isolation of the village, however, favoured the preservation of its original urban structure, which, except for some alterations in the second half of the 20th century, still appears in its medieval appearance, a requisite that has allowed Cornello to be included among "The Most Beautiful Villages in Italy".

Questo percorso permette di raggiungere la Borgata-museo di Balma Boves da Paesana, attraverso il percorso ciclabile misto asfalto/sterrato che si sviluppa in buona parte lungo la nuova pista ciclabile che collega Paesana a Sanfront.
Balma Boves è un caratteristico borgo costruito sotto un’enorme sporgenza rocciosa.
Il sito, oggi ristrutturato e trasformato in ecomuseo, ci svela il segreto degli antichi abitanti di questo villaggio: lo stretto contatto con la natura, l’autosufficienza, la cura ed il saggio sfruttamento delle risorse naturali come l’acqua, la pietra, i frutti della terra. Ancora oggi infatti, gli attrezzi, le abitazioni, le stalle, i fienili, gli essiccatoi per le castagne, le fontane e l’antico forno, ci raccontano di un tempo in cui questi luoghi furono testimoni della cosiddetta “civiltà del castagno”.
Qui sul Mombracco il legame fra montagna e uomo, antico di millenni, è testimoniato anche dalla presenza di numerosi siti di incisioni rupestri, uno dei quali si trova proprio nei pressi di Balma Boves. Si tratta di Rocca la Casna, piatta sporgenza rocciosa in posizione panoramica, sulla quale si troviamo incise coppelle e figure antropomorfe.

The prized Piemonte I.G.P. Hazelnut in the Tonda Gentile delle Langhe variety lends itself well to many sweet and savory preparations, not to mention its application in seemingly distant fields like cosmetics.

The climbs up through the hills, among vineyards and hazelnut groves offer wonderful panoramic views with spectacular vistas: the castles silhouetted on the horizon and the medieval-style villages make the landscape very picturesque.

The bike route continues toward Serralunga d'Alba, whose majestic castle towers make it immediately recognizable, bearing witness to the past of these hills.

Autumn enhances the view by coloring the landscape with warm colors, and the foliage makes the horizon different every day.

Starting from Frosinone, we continue to follow the route of the Eurovelo 5 Romea/Francigena, and we reach the village of Ferentino; from here begins the first of the climbs that characterize the course of the GTL7: the first objective is the village of Fumone, which overlooks the Ernici Mountains, on the top of which stands the imposing Castle owned by the Caetani family, the same as Boniface VIII: here Celestine V was imprisoned and spent his last days, the one who out of cowardice made the great refusal according to Dante; A gloomy and sinister place, it has originated various legends of ghosts over the centuries.From here we continue to the quiet Lake Canterno, until we go up towards Fiuggi, a well-known spa, where we can follow the route of the old railway that until a few decades ago led to Rome: today it is a marked cycle path that passes one after the other the stations of the past, sheltered from the traffic of the Via Prenestina.With a detour it is worth reaching Anagni, another delightful papal village rich in architecture and art.Acuto, Piglio, Serrano, and the route reserved for bicycles is interrupted: avoiding the Prenestina, we continue on Eurovelo 5 which leads us to other wonderful medieval towns such as Gimignano, Genazzano and Cave, ancient papal fiefdoms and a pilgrimage destination for writers such as Gregorovius, and above all Palestrina, whose Temple of Fortuna Primigenia stands out as one of the major pagan sanctuaries of Roman times. From this area there are also many beautiful roads towards the Prenestini Mountains, to deviate from the course of the GTL and challenge the climbs a bit.We hen end the route in Zagarolo, where there is another railway junction for Rome
