Italy by Bike

Italy, a land of fine dining and history

Does Italy, the land of la dolce vita, call to you? You’re absolutely right! Every year, millions of tourists fall under the spell of the “Big Boot.” The country of Leonardo da Vinci boasts a wealth of attractions that span historical, culinary, natural, and cultural realms. In the land of espresso, people know how to take their time and savor life’s simple pleasures—usually enjoyed in magical settings—that will perfectly suit all your needs as cycling tourists!

From the agricultural plains of Piedmont to the fountains of Eternal Rome, passing through the coastal regions where buildings glisten in the reflection of the Mediterranean, Italy has something for everyone.

Step into the big boot

Italy is a country best explored by bike. From its seaside bike paths to the historic mountain passes featured in the many editions of the famous Giro d’Italia, there’s something to satisfy every type of cyclist.
If you’re traveling to push your limits, head to the Amalfi Coast with its combination of steep climbs and idyllic stopover towns. If, on the other hand, your cycling trip is more about combining the joys of cycling with culinary delights, Piedmont, Tuscany, and the Puglia region will delight your senses while offering exceptional routes.

In any case, you can’t go wrong in the land of la dolce vita. With several itineraries built around stopover towns, you have complete freedom to plan your days based on the beauty of the scenery and your own preferences.
