What makes this loop worth riding.
Everything from the Ride Base Pack, right here on the page.
April–May and September–October. On the hills the chestnut forests keep the air crisp even in warm months.
Gravel with significant gradients for most of the route — 13.7% climbing and a 15.5% descent on short stretches. Not for beginners on a gravel bike; on an e-bike it becomes a beautiful ride.
Fill your bottles and pockets in Monterotondo before rolling out — the ridges are wild and services along the way are scarce.
The castle ruins of Rocchette Pannocchieschi, and the glimpses of the sea on the horizon from the high sections.
