Tipi Percorsi
Between Lombardy and Emilia, along the banks of the Po and in the countryside of the Po Valley, there are cities and towns with ancient stories to meet together with their natural environment.
The route starts from Cremona, lying on the Great River like a gigantic boat, to cross over, using the cycle path suspended on the iron bridge over the Po, in the province of Piacenza and pedaling in search of castles and fortresses like that of Monticelli d'Ongina, but peering into strange buildings like bunkers and shacks.
What to see in San Nazzaro
A passage will be dedicated to Isola Serafini, between Cremona and Piacenza, the largest island in the Po river basin with the hydroelectric power plant Carlo Bobbio and the search for a Dutch windmill and a picnic area where to take a break.
In spring, the part of the route that leads from Villanova to Cremona is dotted with cherry trees in bloom and other fruit trees, and if you can't admire the white-and-white show of flowering, you can always console yourself with a taste of the tasty fruits among the tastier than the whole plain or stopping to taste river fish.
Along the way there will therefore be an opportunity to get in touch with local excellences and products!

This ebike tour in South Sardinia will allow you to discover the secrets of the ancient mining routes of the Arburese and the Costa Verde. The path starts from Montevecchio, crosses the ancient mining village of Ingurtosu and reaches the beach of Piscinas. From here, the route continues along the coast and crosses the touristic villages of Portu Maga and Gutturu e' Flumini to then trace back to the mountains.
What to see in Ingurtosu
Ingurtosu is an ancient abandoned mining settlement that was inhabitated by the miners during the last century. Today it presents itself as a ghost village immersed in a suggestive and out of time atmosphere. Following the Provincial Road 66 in the direction of the village Pitzinurri, carrying out a small detour from the original path, you could admire the Palazzo della Direzione della Miniera di Ingurtosu (Palace of the Directorate of the Mine of Ingurtosu) and its iconic arch that embraces the road; the Church of Santa Barbara, from which you could take amazing panoramic photos to the sea; the Ex Ospedale (Former Hospital) of Ingurtosu. Going back, you can admire the ancient houses of the miners. Once you are out of the town you will find the ancient Pozzo Gal (Shaft Gal, within which a multimedia museum is present) and, at the base of the valley, the majestic Laveria Brassey of Naracauli (Brassery Washery of Naracauli).
What to see in Piscinas
Piscinas is probably the most famous and iconic beach of the Southwest of Sardinia and the Costa Verde. Here you will find one of the most impressive dunal complexes in Europe that reaches 100m in height : the Dune of Piscinas. The landscape will leave you breathless and you will seem to have been catapulted into the Sahara desert. We recommend you a walk on the dunes but we remind you that it is absolutely forbidden to transit on the same with means of transport. On the dunes you can also admire the typical Mediterranean vegetation and the characteristic ginepro coccolone (cuddly juniper), which will show you bent because of the strong of the wind of the Maestrale that frequently spins the area. With luck, you could also encounter some exemplary of Sardinian deer. At the centre of the beach you will finally find an ancient mining structure converted into a hotel and some seaside establishments where you could cool down and admire the sea.
What to see in Portu Maga and Gutturu e ' Flumini
The path continues along the Costa Verde and crosses the two villages of Portu Maga and Gutturu e' Flumini. Along the road you can admire numerous beaches and calettes with crystal clear water such as Su Pistoccu (rock seabed), Campu e ' Sali (thick sand grains and rock seabed) and the beach of Gutturu e' Flumini (finest and sandy seabed). The last one is also bounded by a very ancient limestone wall (Punta Calada Bianca) which prides itself on spectacular panoramic photos.
During the last part of your path, on the way to Montevecchio, you will see the Monte Arcuentu (Mount Arcuentu, it is said that its shape reminisces the profile of Napoleon Bonaparte). This is actually an ancient volcano whose top which is reachable in about one hour and a half of walk. For the most willing, we recommend its climb (of medium-low difficulty in the first trait, challenging in the final part. It is about 500m of altitude difference) that will be repaid from a breathtaking panorama: from its top you will see the area from the Costa Verde, the bay of Oristano and part of the centre of Sardinia.

What to see in Ricaldone

THE ITINERARY OF THE POPES AND THE OLD ROME FIUGGI RAILWAY
We are on one of the most demanding stages of the entire GTL, 80 km for about 1200 m of elevation gain. However, the route offers the possibility of being further fragmented, since several railway stations are located along the route and you can therefore use the bike transport service by train to shorten the journey.On the other hand, this stage offers a huge historical and cultural heritage, as well as sections of the existing cycle path, the route of the former Rome-Fiuggi railway.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

This ebike route runs between ancient hamlets and breathtaking mountain landscapes at the foot of the 'King of Stone', Monviso.
This itinerary is divided into two loops that can be cycled together or separately.
The first is simpler and climbs the slope towards Pian Munè, passing through the hamlets of Croesio, Borghini, Salis and Rocciaia, along secondary dirt roads and then descending to Paesana along the tarmac road.
The second loop, recommended for experienced cyclists, starts from Pian Munè and reaches Mount Turnour at an altitude of 1,554 metres. It then descends along well-maintained but challenging mountain dirt roads to the villages of Serre and Oncino and from there, via the provincial road, to Paesana.
In this itinerary, thanks to the aid of e-bikes, you can reach one of the most beautiful panoramic balconies towards the plains of Turin and Cuneo, Pian Munè. It is the ideal place for a quiet break away from the worries of the city after a pleasant ride that nonetheless has quite a bit of elevation gain. From there, our advice is to take the easy dirt road to Monte Turnour and continue a few hundred metres until Monviso appears in all its majesty, with its 3841 metres of altitude.
The descent from Pian Munè towards the hamlets of Serre and Oncino passes from the high-altitude meadows full of flowers in spring to the beech and chestnut woods surrounding the two hamlets.

The 2023-2024 school year was characterized by an extraordinary initiative which saw the students of class 4G of the Liceo Scientifico “A. Volta” of Caltanissetta, accompanied by professor Ivo Cigna, engaged in a one-of-a-kind cycle tour.
Thanks to the collaboration with Legambiente and its Ciclofficina, which supplied the E-bikes, the students had the opportunity to explore some important testimonies of the mining period that affected Caltanissetta between the beginning of the 19th century and the 1970s 900: places rich in history and culture.
This project not only allowed the children to discover an important industrial and natural heritage of Sicily, but also promoted the use of sustainable mobility and environmental education. The carefully planned itinerary included guided tours and educational activities, offering students an immersive and educational experience.

An articulated tour that showcases all of the repertoire, of the typologies of cycling paths of the Bay of the Sun. From Aurelia they earn a hundred metres of quota going back to the church of Holy Cross ; they follow four km of the way Iulia Augusta goes. At the crossroads from the leading abbey, Saint Martin is beginning to follow, in strong ascent, the guinea pig "two red boils". A dirt goes up with some delightfully panoramic returns on the plains of Albenga. A few tens of meters along the ridge, and on the left appear the "S-toppled S" scorer that reports on the south side. It begins the "trail of the wave", perhaps the most iconic trace of the area : an incredible panoramic sea view, excavated on the steps of the quarzite of the falsehoods that loom above the port of Alassio. Technical difficulties and a few trialistic passages are compensated by the feeling of floating free between heaven and sea. It relaxes us a little bit, circumventing the Bignone and Pisciavino mountains, and preparing for "The Jungle." Exposed to the north, on the opposite side of the watershed, the ring swirl for softer and booby-sided slopes : a surprising change of scenery. To go back to the valley you can use one of the ridge's multiters. It is located the communal street for the Palazzotto, passes this large abandoned building and, a few metres later, in front of a villa with a curious garitta, begins the descent on selels, with the marked "two red losanges". The first trait does not incite fear, then takes a breath for a few metres on the "red boil" path and the mulattage begins to plunge with a slope no bad. At the end-ruzzled we find ourselves again in the city.

What to taste in the Food Valley
A short distance from Cremona there is an area dotted with excellent gastronomic products: cold cuts, preserves, cheeses to accompany with typical wines, honey.
We are talking about the south bank of the Po, in the provinces of Piacenza and Parma, at the beginning of that food valley that leads from Cremona to Parma.

It’s a perfect itinerary for lovers of e-biking, slow tourism, and authentic experiences that blend nature, history, and local food culture.
Leaving Cortemilia, the trail climbs towards Serole, a small village surrounded by woods and hazelnut groves, where the peaceful landscape invites you to slow down and enjoy the silence. From Serole, the route continues to Roccaverano, the highest village in the Province of Asti, famous for its medieval panoramic tower and the renowned Robiola di Roccaverano DOP cheese.

A day in the saddle of a pedal-assisted bike among wine, water and legends, passing through some of the most beautiful villages in Irpinia and enjoying the wonderful flat nature of Volturara Irpina, a land of legends.
This route is a loop tour that starts and finishes at the e-bike rental point in Chiusano San Domenico, which, thanks to its privileged location, is the ideal place to set out to explore one of the most fascinating areas of Irpinia.
However, if you prefer to start from the ebike rental point located at the Ciclostazione Avellino (Contrada San Lorenzo 18, Atripalda). add the AB/BA route (16.5 km) to this track to reach the bike rental point in Chiusano San Domenico.
This is a route that presents no particular difficulty and can therefore be tackled with all available types of rental e-bike: city, trekking and full suspension e-MTB.
This trail can be lengthened or shortened as desired. Therefore, feel free to contact us to let us know your time and/or fitness needs: we will be happy to customise this path so that it perfectly suits your requirements.
Let's start!
After refilling your water bottle at the Fontana Vecchia in Chiusano San Domenico, from which clear water always gushes out fresh, it is time to hit the road!
Follow the directions on the GPS track we have provided and, whenever you arrive at a point of interest, learn more about the places by reading the tips we have prepared for you: we hope you will find them interesting and that they will help you to fully enjoy your ebike excursion along the roads of Irpinia!
After about 2 km of road, you will have to turn onto State Road 400. Although it is classified as a state road, and therefore a fast road, it is in fact a road with low traffic intensity, since it is now replaced by other, more convenient roads. In any case, we advise you to be careful and pedal in the comfortable space between the continuous line that delimits the roadway (it is very wide), because some of the few vehicles that pass along it may proceed at high speed.
The road continues with a very slight incline for 5 km, you will be able to overcome the most challenging stretch of the whole day in a short time. Once you enter the junction for Castelvetere sul Calore, you will only pedal your electric bike along roads with non-existent traffic, so you can relax, enjoy the scenery, and stop to take photographs whenever you want.
Once in Castelvetere, visit the historic centre, better known as 'La Ripa'.
Leaving the village, the road continues slightly uphill towards Montemarano, the village famous for the high quality of its Aglianico wine, for the Tarantella Montemaranese and for its Carnival. After visiting the historic centre of Montemarano, turn back to the beginning of the village and take the road to Volturara and the Piana del Dragone.
Here begins a long and beautiful descent, partly wooded and therefore sheltered from the scorching sun: enjoy the road, keeping your hands firmly on the ebike's brakes. For about 13 kilometres you can hardly pedal at all. Towards the end of the descent, take care only to turn left and follow the signs for Volturara Irpina.
At the end of the descent you will have arrived in the town of Volturara Irpinia: welcome to the Piana del Dragone. Being a plateau of about 1,110 hectares, it is a popular place for cyclists in the province of Avellino. Riding an ebike and cycling here is a real pleasure. The absence of slopes, zero traffic and the beauty of the landscape will leave you breathless.
Before visiting the town of Volturara Irpina, don't forget to visit the Bocca del Dragone, a very important place from a naturalistic point of view, being the nerve centre of the most important hydrographic basin in the central south, and to learn more about the legend connected to this evocative place with the sheet we have prepared for you. There is no shortage of picnic tables and picnic areas near the Bocca del Dragone, so if you want to plan a longer stopover, this might be the right place.
This place changes profoundly depending on the seasons: if in summer it is full of pastures and cultivated gardens, in winter - when rainfall and water quantity are conspicuous - it could literally be flooded. If you find yourself visiting it during the flooding phase, you can literally cross this kind of lake, using a walkway bordered on either side by a wooden fence.
Leaving Volturara Irpina, you will find yourself pushing the pedals of your ebike along the so-called Ofantina Vecchia. After 3 km, you will reach 'Malepasso'. The name of this place dates back to the time of the Briganti, to denote its dangerousness and the real possibility of encountering some of them.
From here on, you will be immersed in lush nature, surrounded by mountains so close that you will feel as if you could touch them. The marvellous descent will give you a stupendous panorama, with Atripalda, Avellino and Mercogliano below you, with Montevergine and the Partenio Regional Park right in front of you. There is a quarry along the descent, so watch out for heavy vehicles entering and leaving the quarry that may be driving along the hairpin bends.
After the last few pedal strokes, it will not be at all difficult to reach the ebike rental point in Chiusano San Domenico. Here you will find our staff ready to welcome you back and to collect your impressions and suggestions on the experience you will have had riding your pedal-assisted bike.
Please, remember that we are at your complete disposal before, during and after your excursions on the rented ebikes. Thanks to the GPS trackers on all our pedal-assisted bikes, we can reach you quickly and accurately in the event of difficulties.
For information on routes and rental, for assistance during ebike rental you can call us on the phone (Mon 4:30 pm-8:00 pm / Tue-Sat 9:30 am -1:30 pm, 16:30 pm - 8:00 pm) or write to us on Whatsapp 24 hours a day. The number to contact is always the same, whether you want to talk by voice or exchange messages on Whatsapp. Just add the number +39.(0)825.31.139 to your address book to chat with us.
If you just want to think about having fun, relax and let one of our guides accompany you. We will be happy to reveal hidden corners, breathtaking views and share the road with you.
1° giorno
Ritrovo a Canelli nel primo pomeriggio.
Partenza con il proprio mezzo in direzione Bubbio che raggiungiamo in circa mezz’ora. Qui ci attende una Agrichef al femminile. Ci rechiamo, con una breve passeggiata, a visitare la prima cantina che in Italia ha ottenuto la certificazione biologica. Sorseggiando i vini scopriamo l’essenza del lavoro nella vigna, la passione che questa famiglia dedica alle viti.
Inebriati dai vini e dalle storie siamo pronti per la cena di benvenuto. Degusteremo piatti della tradizione langarola preparati con prodotti del territorio (cena di benvenuto in agriturismo inclusa, vini esclusi).
Pernottamento con colazione presso l’agriturismo che ci accoglierà durante l’intero soggiorno. Camera doppia con bagno privato.
2° giorno
Dopo un’ottima colazione siamo pronti a cavalcare le nostre e-bike Il percorso di 40 km si snoda tra le colline dei vigneti che producono i famosi vini Asti Spumante e Moscato d’Asti. Iniziamo il percorso su strade secondarie tra filari e noccioleti. Arrivati sulla collina scorgiamo il fiume Belbo da un lato e il Bormida dall’altro. in lontananza le Alpi chiudono l’orizzonte.
Scendiamo a Santo Stefano Belbo, paese natale di Cesare Pavese, dove facciamo una sosta presso lo storico caffè della piazza. Respiriamo l’aria di paese e… tra le persone ci pare scorgere il grande scrittore. Visitiamo i luoghi in tranquillità.
Riprendiamo la strada in direzione Canelli, il paese di antiche origini, nel cuore della produzione del Moscato. Visiteremo una Cooperativa Sociale dove l’inclusione e la produzione biologica si incontrano. Pranzo libero. Nel pomeriggio rientriamo a Bubbio passando da due pittoreschi borghi. Ci riposiamo nel prato dell’agriturismo dove, in attesa della cena con specialità langarole, possiamo degustare dell’ottimo vino (facoltativo) raccontandoci la giornata.
3° giorno
Dopo la colazione siamo pronti per dirigerci verso Monastero Bormida, dove ci immergiamo nell’atmosfera medioevale tra le stradine del paese. Attraversiamo il Bormida che dà il nome all’intera valle e il paesaggio cambia. Le viti lasciano il posto a prati, noccioleti e boschi. Ai bordi della strada caprette brucano l’erba e ci ricordano che siamo nel territorio di produzione della Robiola di Roccaverano. La strada sale dolcemente e arriviamo a San Giorgio Scarampi. Un borgo dove il tempo si è fermato. Lo sguardo spazia dalle Alpi agli Appennini liguri. Riprendiamo la via che in discesa ci conduce verso Bubbio.
Torniamo all’agriturismo per il pranzo (libero).
Qualche acquisto gastronomico ed è tempo di saluti. Negli occhi e nel cuore ci portiamo la gente, i colori e i sapori di questo lembo di terra di Langa.

La Selva del Lamone si trova tra il Lazio e la Toscana e si estende tra i comuni di Ischia, Farnese e Pitigliano.
E' uno dei boschi più selvaggi della regione e si estende su un'antichissima colata lavica, si presume la stessa dell'esplosione che ha dato origine al lago di Bolsena e protegge al suo interno numerose specie di flora e di fauna.
La Riserva fa arte del SIC (Sito di Importanza Comunitaria) e del ZPS (Zona di Protezione Speciale).
Attraversando il bosco si possono ammirare pregiate testimonianze storiche e archeologiche, oltre alle bellissime cascate naturali: quella del Salabrone e quella del Pelicotonno.
Pedalando si attraversa anche Farnese dove è possibile pedalare nel borgo di Pinocchio dove sono state giratae delle scene del film di Comencini.

Volterra and its Hills by Bike
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, the rolling hills surrounding Volterra offer some of Italy's most fascinating cycling tourism experiences. The e-bike tour guides cyclists, through the practical Bikesquare app, to discover the hidden treasures of this extraordinary region, where ancient history, breathtaking panoramas, and authentic culture converge to create an unforgettable adventure. Starting from our convenient bike rental point in Volterra, this journey promises to transport you through a landscape that has inspired artists, poets, and dreamers for centuries. The adventure begins at our well-equipped bike rental center in Volterra. Before departure, you will receive a comprehensive briefing on the route, notable landmarks, and safety tips to ensure your journey is as comfortable as it is memorable.
Romanesque Church of Palagione
After visiting Volterra's historic center, the bike route continues gently descending into the verdant countryside, where cypress-lined avenues and olive groves create the quintessential Tuscan backdrop. The first destination, Palagione, emerges after about 5 kilometers of relaxed pedaling through this pastoral paradise. The highlight of Palagione is undoubtedly its exquisite Romanesque church, a masterpiece of medieval religious architecture dating back to the 12th century. Standing in serene isolation amid the surrounding fields, this ancient place of worship invites visitors to step back in time. The simple yet elegant façade of the church, characterized by local sandstone and precise geometric designs, exemplifies the Romanesque architectural style that flourished throughout Tuscany. Inside, the cool and silent environment offers a moment of rest and contemplation, while the ancient stone columns and surviving frescoes speak of centuries of devotion and artistic expression. The peaceful churchyard provides the perfect place for a brief stop and perhaps a snack.
Pignano
Leaving Palagione behind, with the e-bikes you effortlessly reach a landscape that unfolds like a living Renaissance painting. The route to Pignano follows ancient paths that have connected these settlements for millennia, offering constantly changing views of vineyards, wheat fields, and distant hilltop villages. After about 7 kilometers of gentle undulations, you arrive at Pignano, a perfectly preserved medieval village that seems frozen in time. This enchanting settlement, with its cluster of stone buildings centered around a historic manor house, embodies the timeless charm of rural Tuscany. Pignano's narrow cobblestone streets invite exploration, revealing hidden courtyards adorned with flowering plants and glimpses of daily life that have changed little over the centuries. The village's elevated position offers spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, with Volterra visible in the distance on clear days. A small café in the center of the village offers the opportunity to sample local specialties, including the region's renowned pecorino cheese, cured meats, and robust red wines.
The Natural Splendor of Mazzolla
The route skirts the edge of the Berignone Forest Nature Reserve, a protected area of remarkable biodiversity. This ancient woodland, home to wild boars, deer, and numerous bird species, offers a strong contrast to the cultivated fields crossed earlier in the day. Mazzolla itself is perched on a natural terrace, giving visitors breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys and distant hills. This tiny village, with fewer than 100 permanent residents, is centered around the impressive Villa Viti, a 19th-century mansion built by alabaster merchant Giuseppe Viti. The villa's eclectic architectural style, combining elements of neoclassical grandeur with more whimsical oriental influences, reflects the cosmopolitan tastes of its original owner who traveled the world. The village square, shaded by ancient linden trees, offers an idyllic spot to rest and rehydrate while absorbing the tranquil atmosphere that has remained largely unchanged for generations. Local residents, accustomed to cyclists passing through their village, often greet visitors with warm smiles and, occasionally, tales of local history and traditions.
Return to Volterra
The final stretch of the bike adventure toward Volterra opens up panoramic views of the Val di Cecina, with its mosaic of fields, olive groves, and vineyards stretching toward the distant horizon. The afternoon light bathes the landscape in a golden glow, creating perfect lighting conditions for photography enthusiasts. The ancient city of Volterra gradually appears, with its medieval towers and defensive walls silhouetted against the sky. Your approach takes you past the remains of the Etruscan necropolis, a poignant reminder of the three thousand years of continuous human habitation in this region. The route culminates in a truly spectacular finale with the entrance to Volterra through the iconic Porta all'Arco, an Etruscan gate dating back to the 4th century BC. This ancient portal, with its characteristic three weathered stone heads watching over all who pass beneath, provides an appropriate conclusion to a journey that has traversed both the physical landscape and the rich tapestry of history that defines this remarkable corner of Tuscany.

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. Before entering the beautiful village of Giulianello, we skirt the lake of the same name along dirt roads and dirt roads, to avoid the dangerous and busy provincial road not far away. A few more pedal strokes and we are in Cori, where you can visit the wonderful Temple of Hercules. Continuing, the descent towards the expanses and the reclamation canals take us to what were once the fiefdoms of the Caetani family, up to one of the most beautiful gardens in Italy, the Oasis of Ninfa. From here to the Abbey of Valvisciolo, a masterpiece of the Cistercian, the road is short, and a few kilometers further on we can face the climb to the fortress of Sermoneta and stop at the medieval castle of the Caetani family. The last kilometers of the route are all flat, and pass first through the Latina Scalo station, and then arrive in the cradle of Rationalism.
