Tipi Percorsi
LAKE TURANO
Once on the border with Abruzzo, the GTL route turns north and heads to Sabina, towards the fourth provincial capital of the region: after Rome, Latina and Frosinone, this stage takes us to Rieti, the "geographical center of Italy". To do so, he chooses the gentler and less harsh route through the mountains, continuing to follow the Way of St. Benedict as already happened in stage 6. We climb in altitude passing through villages set in the green of the Apennine woods, Riofreddo, Vallinfreda, Orvinio, and then enter the Turano valley, where the lake of the same name was formed in 1939, following the construction of a huge dam. In fact, the track follows a flat pace and even slightly downhill as a whole, with only two small uphill climbs, offering the pleasure of pedaling through the mountains without pedaling too much. This valley is not served by train or highways, and has remained relatively quiet and safe from the large tourist flows. The river we skirt, also called Turano, gradually swells until it becomes a fjord, the southern branch of the lake: its contours are often foggy, humid and disturbing. We thus arrive at the two villages of Castel di Tora and Colle di Tora, which look at each other from the two shores of the lake, and the ruins of the castle of Antuni, piled up on a small island near the bridge that joins the two sides. After Colle di Tora there are the only slopes to face to get to the Turano dam: a few hairpin bends in the woods, and we are at the gigantic concrete wall that holds back the course of the river. It is worth a small detour to the villages of Rocca Sinibalda, where the impressive Sforza Cesarini Castle stands, originally from the eleventh century, and Posticciola, an original Roman outpost and transhumance passage. From here on it is all downhill: we lose the altitude gained on a road snubbed by traffic, to easily cover the last flat kilometers towards the Sabine capital.

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.
a Empoli, in Val d'Arno
THE UPPER SABINA
The eleventh stage of the GTL changes the landscape once again: we move away from the Apennines for the lower Sabine Mountains, heading west. But the lower altitudes should not deceive, since the slopes of these hills often prove to be more challenging and hard than the mountains proper, with their sudden and violent ups and downs. From Rieti we leave for the beautiful village of Contigliano, on little-frequented and lonely roads among olive trees and vineyards. We are a few steps from Greccio, a medieval town famous for its nativity scenes, certainly worthy of a detour. Hairpin bends, climbs and descents follow one another, giving villages resting on the "hillocks", the heights chosen for settlements since ancient times: Cottanello, Casperia, Cantalupo in Sabina. Only the end of the stage and the arrival in the Tiber valley offers a bit of descent and respite, up to the railway station of Stimigliano, the end of the stage – and a public velodrome, that of Forano.

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 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.
