Overview

Our Summer Long Weekend package takes advantage of those long summer days and this means we can head into the heart of the backcountry. You’ll enjoy cooler temperatures, long days, and endless trails. Ride deep into the backcountry or opt for a shuttle-supported experience. You can also add a night in a remote mountain hut for an unforgettable experience, or head down to the purpose built trails of the coast. Riding in the Tuscan Apennines is all about having backcountry adventures and descending on never-ending ridgelines with high meadow natural single tracks. With great vehicle access we can easily get you and the bikes right to the heart of the action, where you will typically spend the morning above the tree line before descending into one of our four custom built trail and shuttle locations to finish the day off with. The famous Marble Mountains of Massa-Carrara are renowned for both their beauty and incredible trails that head down to the coast. Here we have two very different sides of the mountain range to play with which both offer a totally diverse riding experience. Our valley side is home to long winding ancient pathways in stunning oak and chestnut forests that we have revived, whilst the coastal side offers rugged custom built Enduro madness tracks that blast through the marble mines and down to the Mediterranean beaches. You’ll be based at our main base, a traditional family-run Agriturismo with its own big pool and restaurant in the heart of the Garfagnana valley. The Agriturismo comes with three guesthouses, a restaurant, a big outdoor pool. You will stay in spacious mezzanine bedrooms that are equipped with a living and kitchen area and en-suite bathroom.
