The expert's opinion

The first stage seems long but the difficulty is less because with high-end e-bikes and by taking the time to pedal and discover your surroundings, the stage becomes accessible.

Security

The route follows small secondary roads where you will be really quiet in terms of traffic.

Sometimes you have to take slightly busier roads to reach these peaceful little roads, but they remain very much in the minority!


In terms of safety, we remain on small roads which are certainly very quiet, but the rules for cyclists still apply.

    From this first leg of the journey, we were completely immersed in our own little world, and what a joy it was! The village of Sari d'Orcino reveals itself in a whole new light by bike – it's amazing how your perspective changes when you take your time. And the light! Soft, golden, almost unreal.

    The road then unfolds towards Arbori, and a few bends later the convent of Vico comes into view, like a promise around a bend in the road.
