Bid local farmers “Buongiorno!” from the seat of your Trek bicycle as your bike tour takes you to the roads of Chianti. Awash in the rich sights, smells, and sounds of the endless vineyards, the quiet, rolling roads of the Tuscan countryside offer gorgeous terrain that’s a joy to pedal for cycling experts and novices alike. Explore the streets of the medieval hilltop town of San Gimignano and marvel at the imposing fairy-tale architecture of its remaining fourteen towers. Savor the endless panoramic vistas as you pedal amid olive groves, chestnut forests, and medieval fortresses. There’s plenty of time to shop, eat and explore in the towns of Radda and Castellina in Chianti. Sample a Chianti Classico or perhaps a little known SuperTuscan, or stop in the walled town of Monteriggioni to enjoy a delicious white truffle. Discover the remains of Etruscan life and the spectacular Roman ruins in the hilltop town of Volterra. Do it all, or none of it—either way, the decisions, the pace, and the memories are yours to make during your Tuscan bike trip with Trek Travel.
