The Perfect Gravel Cycling Trip in Tuscany

Tuscany is the perfect setting for a cycling tour holiday. We followed the white gravel roads made famous by the "Strada Bianche" professional cycling race and "L'Eroica" amateur cycling event, were astonished by the breathtaking city of Siena, and admired many beautiful towns such as Gaiole, San Quirico, Pienza and Montalcino.
Our adventure took us through the UNESCO listed Val d'Orcia, and past countless centuries old churches, monuments and Cypress tree adorned villas.
With our Trek Travel tour guides leading the way, we explored so many amazing sights, sounds and tastes of Tuscany.
Using our new drone "Guido" and our faithful GoPro we've captured the essence of the Tuscan Cycling Holiday experience, on the gravel roads, at the cafes and restaurants, and inside our luxury hotel resorts accomodation.
Although this tour was a deliberate change of pace from our previous "high mountain Strava fests", we still found a way to include a little spontaneous racing, although the essence of this holiday was living "La Dolce Vita"
