999 Tuscany Grand Rando

The historic cities of Tuscany

The leaning tower of Pisa, the sunrise of Florence in Piazzale Michelangelo, the walls of Lucca, the vision of the Mangia tower in Siena, the ancient profile of Arezzo, the Medicean fortress of Grosseto and many small and large medieval centers.

Mountains, forests and lakes

of the Apennines: Garfagnana, Mugello, Pratomagno and Casentino up to the Franciscan Sanctuary of La Verna.

The daring descents and the climbs

along the narrow streets of the green hills of Chianti, Valdelsa, Valdarbia and Valdichiana, with the spectacular company of
nearby, vineyards, olive groves and ancient houses.

The curious excursion

in the mysterious Montagnola until you meet the smoking valleys, rivers and natural parks of the Metalliferous Hills and Valdicecina.

The spectacular vision

of the lunar Crete Senesi and the sweet Valdorcia with the ascent through the vineyards of Mon-talcino.

The Arcane Encounter

with the Terre del Tufo and the authentic Maremma countryside with the ancient volcano of Amiata to watch and the thermal waterfalls of Saturnia to restore.

The clear sea of Argentario

with the island of
Giglio to guard the Orbetello lagoon and the unexplored Uccellina Park.

The sound of the waves of the Tyrrhenian Sea

that from the Gulf of Follonica, Castiglion della Pescaia, San Vincenzo, the Etruscan coast and cosmopolitan Livorno allows cyclists to rediscover the road that leads back to the San Rossore Park with their mind always turned to the poetic shadow of Bolgheri's cypress trees.
