Tipi Percorsi
This tour runs through the countryside between Quintano, Capralba, Casaletto Vaprio and Trescore Cremasco and allows you to discover some of the most important fountains of the Cremas.
The phenomenon of water resurgence occurs in that band of variable width where there is the passage between the high plain, formed by coarse pebbles, and the low plain formed by sands and clays. The rainwater or fluvial waters penetrating under the ground do not find more space to flow and emerge limpid and at a constant temperature.
The phenomenon was used in the past for the practice of rotting: the water was running in the winter on the lawns keeping them free, then, from frost and snow and allowing further mowing even in the bad season.

The Great E-Bike Ring: From Volterra to Montecatini Val di Cecina
The magnificent e-bike circuit connecting Volterra and Montecatini Val di Cecina represents one of Tuscany's most extraordinary cycling tourism opportunities, offering an immersive tourist journey through 3,000 years of history, breathtaking landscapes, and a rich cultural heritage. This great ring has been expertly designed to showcase the region's diverse attractions, making them accessible to everyone, even those who aren't physically trained, thanks to the revolutionary advantage of electric bicycles. The e-bike rental point in Volterra is a convenient starting point for exploring the area.
Volterra and Montecatini: Pedaling Among Historical Treasures
The bike tour is a loop connecting two extraordinary destinations that represent different facets of Tuscan heritage. On one side stands Volterra, a city whose three-thousand-year history is evident in its Etruscan walls, Roman theater, and medieval towers. Cycling in or out of Volterra offers cyclists spectacular approaches with panoramic views that have changed little since Etruscan times.
At the other end of the bike circuit lies Montecatini Val di Cecina, one of Tuscany's most picturesque medieval villages. Perched on a hill, it offers a fantastic panoramic view of the surrounding valley. The climb to reach the town is manageable even for those who are less trained, as the e-bike supports pedaling, allowing riders to tackle the ascent with little effort.
The e-bike route is designed to allow cyclists to start from the bike rental point in Volterra and visit both locations, completing the entire ring in one day with ample time for tourist visits to the villages, or breaking the journey with an overnight stay to experience both destinations in greater depth.
Between "Balze" and "Calanchi" by E-bike
The cycling tourism experience between these two ancient villages takes cyclists through an extraordinarily diverse landscape that showcases Tuscany's geological complexity. From the saddle of a bicycle, moving at the perfect pace to absorb the ever-changing landscape, one witnesses a remarkable transition from gently rolling hills to harsh and wild badlands (calanchi), to the distinctive formations of the "balze" (clay cliffs), then giving way to steep, rocky elevations reminiscent of mountain environments.
This geological diversity creates an ever-evolving cycling experience that makes the route never monotonous. Each curve reveals new panoramas, with the landscape transforming kilometer by kilometer. The e-bike assistance becomes particularly valuable during the transition from the gentler terrain around Volterra to the more challenging and mountainous approaches toward Montecatini, allowing cycle tourists to maintain a comfortable pace while enjoying the scenery.
Art and Nature: The Cycling Path through Land Art
One of the most distinctive aspects of this e-bike tour is the integration of cultural experiences directly into the route. After taking the panoramic dirt road marked as "Itinerary of the Balze and Calanchi," cyclists can access various branches of the path that lead to environmental sculptures created by the artist Mauro Staccioli. These remarkable examples of land art interpret the essence of what the artist called "places of experience."
Unlike tourists in cars who simply arrive at a designated parking area, cyclists gradually discover these works as they emerge from the landscape, creating a more organic and meaningful interaction with the art. Admiring the landscape, one can better appreciate how the artworks interact with and comment on the surrounding environment.
Visit to the Caporciano Copper Mine by E-bike
The e-bike circuit connects the natural landscape with the region's industrial heritage through the impressive Caporciano Copper Mine near Montecatini Val di Cecina. This historic site, which gave its name to one of the major industries of the 20th century (later Montedison), offers cycle tourists a fascinating look at the economic and social history of the early years of united Italy.
Located just over 1 kilometer from the center of the village, the Industrial Archaeology Park with the Alfredo Well, workshops, washeries, and the nineteenth-century mining village offers various visiting itineraries. Cycle tourists benefit from dedicated bicycle parking facilities that allow them to safely leave their e-bikes while exploring the mining complex on foot.

The second stage of the GTL flattens out towards the Agro Pontino, leaving behind the reliefs of the Alban Hills. Leaving Velletri, we move away from the course of the Appian Way along secondary roads in the countryside dotted with vines, still following the Via Francigena del Sud and the Eurovelo 7 route.

This ebike tour in Ciociaria will allow you to discover, without too much effort, some traits of two among the most famous paths in all of Italy. It is part of Ceprano's rental point, where you can choose the electric bike best suited to you. After a few kilometers of pedalata you will enter a road, immersed in nature, which is part of the group of European cycling itineraries called EuroVelo. Along this route you will meet the Natural Monument Grotte of Falvaterra and Rio Obaco, where we advise you to stop to visit the interior of the Grotts or simply refresh yourself to its exterior. The second part of the itinerary envisages, then, to reach and take part of another historic path, the Via Francigena. This, away from the main routes, will lead you to the country of Ceprano and finally back to the rental point.
Bike + Train : with an increasingly careful eye to sustainability in the tourism sphere, at the request will be possible to rent the ebike directly from Ceprano-Falvaterra railway station. You can, therefore, reach Ceprano by train (connected directly with Rome and Naples), rent the ebike and re-mark it back to the same station at the end of the experience.
EuroVelo 5
EuroVelo is a group of cycling routes that cross all of Europe. In particular we find ourselves along the stretch called EuroVelo 5, also called "Via Romea Francigena" 3,900 kilometres long, which, once finished, will unite London in Brindisi, passing through Milan, Rome and our Ciociaria. After leaving Ceprano's rental point you'll be pedaling yourself right on secondary roads, immersed in the tranquility, sounds and perfumes typical of the campaign that will enrich your experience along the whole adventure. After a few kilometers you'll reach the SP151, which is part of the aforementioned EuroVelo 5, along which you'll meet some of the local trattories and producers, the reported Fontana Water Bianca, where you can stop to drink and fill up your borracks and, with a small detour from the main route, the Grottoes of Falvaterra.
Grotte of Falvaterra and Rio Obaco
Soon after leaving SP151 you will reach the Natural Monument Grotte in Falvaterra and Rio Obaco, a veritable hidden gem in the heart of Ciociaria. Here we advise you to stop to visit the interior of the complex (in this case you will need to reach the ticket office first, report on the map) or simply to rest on its exterior, where the temperatures fall sharply and, especially in the warmer days, you can enjoy the fresh from the caves and the torrent limpid spilling out of it.
Via Francigena
Back in the saddle to your ebike, you will be walking a few kilometers until you reach the dam that will allow you to cross the Liri River and arrive at the Lake St. John Inload. In a short time you will find yourself along the Via Francigena (also reported by numerous road signs) that will take you to pedal first around the lake and then on a long white road that crosses the woods, away from paved roads and cars. Once you return to the main road, continuing to follow the road signs also, you will be returning to a secondary road that will allow you to reach another small lake, that of San Giacomo. Among the local inhabitants, this small water mirror is known for its particular connection with the Moon : as can be seen from satellite images, in fact, its particular form reminds precisely that of a crescent ; the numerous elevations and lowering of the water level during the course of the year remind those of the tides in the Earth-to-Earth interaction ; finally, the road leading from the country to the lake (in the path is the one you'll encounter by leaving it) is called its own Via Guardaluna.
By continuing the path we reach, finally, the municipality of Ceprano once again crossed the river thanks to the historic bridge which in the past divided the Papal State from the Kingdom of the South and which was mentioned in an episode of the Divine Comedy. Right after you arrive in Ceprano's main square where you can choose whether to stop to drink an aperitif or continue to re-enter the rental point, where you'll have a relaxation area, a relaxation area in the greenery of a plateau, the bar and restaurant Le Ganze where you can reinstate your energies, eating typical dishes of the laitier and ciociara cuisine.
This bike experience is perfect for unusually and sustainably discovering the beauties of the ciocious territory, immersing itself in its history, in its pristine nature and gusting its typical products.

The singer is buried in the cemetery, who died tragically in the night between 26 and 27 January 1967 during the Sanremo Festival.
Continuing the Tour you will arrive at the village of Maranzana.
Maranzana and the way back
Once in Maranzana, you cannot fail to notice a dense group of "babaci".
The latter, called in local jargon, are nothing more than fabric puppets made by the local inhabitants to repopulate the streets of the village which were emptying.
Thanks to this recent discovery, Maranzana receives many visits from national and international tourists every year.
It is also possible to organize a tasting at the local Cantina Sociale La Maranzana, to taste the typical products of the area.
Continuing along the track, you will reach the town of Mombaruzzo Stazione again and then face a last climb that will allow you to reach the "crest" of the hill.
The last part of the ride will be flat until you get back to Casalotto, but not before having evaluated a visit/tasting to the prestigious Berta Distilleries located along the way.

A coastal stop, made up of Homeric suggestions, Greek and Roman history and beautiful villages framed by the overbearing blue of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Spectacular landscapes overlooking the sea, which mark the exit from the papal territories and the entry into what was the Kingdom of the Bourbons: the cultural influence of Naples and the South is felt, after all this is the southernmost stage of the entire GTL, which arrives right at the last municipality before the border of Campania, Minturno. From Monte San Biagio we pass the former customs between the two states, and descend into the plain of Fondi, skirting the lake of the same name. From here to Sperlonga, a charming seaside resort made up of white houses, the step is short. After passing the dirt roads of Lake Fondi, an easy seafront cycle path welcomes us first in the lower part of the village, then in a short climb to the ancient village, in whose alleys it is really worth making a stop. After Sperlonga, near which there are the remains of the villa of Emperor Tiberius, built right next to the sea cave that bears his name, the most spectacular stretch of road awaits us: the Ausoni mountains have been replaced by the Aurunci, and to avoid the Via Flacca, panoramic but full of dangerous tunnels overlooking the sea, we face the climb in the direction of Itri. The climb is challenging and monumental, but the view of the Pontine Islands and the Campanian Archipelago repays all the effort. Before entering Itri, whose castle and olives are still worth a visit, the track makes its way into the folds of the Aurunci until it reaches Gaeta, a fascinating fortified city with a pirate appearance, famous for the Sanctuary of the Split Mountain and for the tiella, the typical rustic cake of the area; the last kilometers towards Minturno run along the port with its murals, crossing Formia and Scauri to the destination.

What to see, Riale [ Chärbäch-in Walser ]
Located at 1730 mslm, Riale is among the first settlements created by the Walsers that reached Ossola from nearby Canton Valais through the Gries Pass, is the northernmost fraction of the Piedmont and is a small jewel of montane architecture.
In the past, Riale and the Val Formazza represented an important trade route that put Valais (CH) in communication with neighboring Lombardy through the Gries Pass.
What to see, Oratorio di Sant' Anna
Built by the Edison company in remembrance of the chiesque of the submerged Morasco borgate and the workers who lost their lives during the construction of the dam. Sant' Anna was, with the Madonna della Neve, patron of the oratorio of the village of Morasco, abandoned definitively in 1938.
The cloth of Formazza, of ancient construction, "covered inside with lumber," preserved an icon with an icon with the wooden sculptures of the Virgin, Saint Anne and St. Bartholomew. After the destruction of the oratorio, the devotion of the valligians made the sculptures transport the nearby Riale oratory, from which they were pierted in the Seventies of the twentieth century.
What to see, The source of the Toce River
Nasce in the Piana of Riale from the joining of the torrents Morasco, Gries and Roni. Little further downstream forms the waterfall of the Toce, also called La Frua, which forms a jump of about 143 m. After passing through the Antigory and Formazza valleys, the Toce enters the plain and ends its course in the Lake Beetle, browsing in the Borromeo Gulf, its waters thus flowing into those of the Ticino, the sole emissary of Lake Maggiore.
Focus, the Cascade of the Toce
Situated in Frua fraction is considered one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the alps. On the days our waters are regimented by the Morasco hydroelectric basin, it is therefore possible to see it in the full of its beauty only for a few days a year in the months between June and September.
