Overview

Epic Tuscany is an 8-day cycling trip that will allow you to discover one of Italy's most desirable and coveted cycling areas. The challenging cycle tour will take you back to the roots of our sport and test your cycling skills on the endless ups and downs of the Tuscan countryside, as well as ride the famous gravel roads where our sport was born more than one hundred years ago. The routes will be winding and spectacular, strenuous but exciting, dotted with cypress trees, olive groves, ruined Tuscan farmhouses, vineyards and dense wooded areas. The trip includes Lucca, Siena, the Chianti area and the entire Val d'Orcia with its many medieval villages.
