E-MTB tour and Garfagnana's wine tasting

Enclosed between the Apuan Alps and the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, Garfagnana is an area rich in landscapes, history, culture and food and wine. Discover it with anelectric mountain-bike excursion and combine sport, nature and taste in anunforgettable experience.

An expert guide will take you to discover the most interesting and enjoyable places to ride an e-bike: historic villages, unpaved country roads and forest paths. Throughout the itinerary, you will be surrounded by beautiful mountain landscapes and will be able to see snow-capped peaks on the horizon.

You will have the opportunity to relax and satisfy your taste buds with a visit to an organic farm, where you can taste the mountain wines of the Garfagnana accompanied by local cured meats and cheeses.

An interesting and enjoyable excursion, also suitable for those who are not particularly well trained, thanks to the pedal-assisted mountain bikes.

What we will do

We will meet in Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, in the province of Lucca. Having formed the group and collected the electric mountain-bike best suited to our height (hire included), we will hold a briefing on its operation and the route ahead of us.

We will follow a circular route of varying length and difficulty depending on the experience and characteristics of the participants. On the advice of the guides, we will be able to lengthen or shorten the route as we go along, so as to make the experience enjoyable for everyone and create a fun and relaxed atmosphere from start to finish.

Within a very evocative natural setting, we will visit small characteristic villages, cross farms, dirt roads and woodland paths, where the more experienced can try their hand at fun single tracks. Halfway along, we will stop at an organic farm where we will taste typical wines and local products.

After refreshments, we will depart for the Apuan side of the Garfagnana to return to our starting point after crossing one of the highest railway bridges in Europe.

The activity lasts about 6 hours and the route is suitable for cyclists of all levels. At various points, it will be possible to choose more or less difficult stretches to satisfy everyone.

Who it is aimed at

This activity can have a level of difficulty from easy to intermediate, depending on the route sections that can be chosen along the way. Given the flexibility and the help of electric mountain bikes, the excursion is suitable for all those with a minimum familiarity with the bike and a height of at least 145 cm.
