Departure: An easy, hilly loop of approximately 25 kilometers (2.5–3 hours including stops), following a “wave-like” pattern: short climbs and smooth descents on scenic back roads.

Terrain and guidance: Mixed asphalt and dirt road route.

Points of interest: A ride through the set of “Gladiator” and stops around Bagno Vignoni and San Quirico d’Orcia, with the return journey to Pienza along highly scenic dirt roads.

Useful information: This is a tour to be enjoyed at a steady pace, ideal for a leisurely half-day outing. On the quieter, less frequented sections, it is a good idea to set off with water, a snack, and a charged phone to enjoy the ride with complete peace of mind.
