Cycling day trip from Assisi to Spoleto

Assisi to Spoleto Cycling Route

Pedal your way through the heart of Umbria on this scenic 54-kilometer ride from the medieval hill town of Assisi to the charming city of Spoleto. You’ll mostly cruise along paved roads and cycleways, rolling through olive groves and quiet countryside. Assisi, famous as the birthplace of St. Francis, boasts beautiful basilicas and incredible views – so take a moment to soak it in before you start.

The route is friendly to most cyclists, with little climbing (about 170 meters gain) and even more descent, so you’ll feel that gentle downhill push as you head south. You’ll spend most of your time on smooth surfaces and peaceful roads, with very little shared with busy traffic.

Arriving in Spoleto, you can celebrate your ride where Roman, medieval, and Renaissance wonders mingle—don’t miss the ancient aqueduct or the mighty fortress towering above the city. It’s a relaxing and picturesque journey connecting two of Umbria’s most storied towns—perfect for a day on two wheels!
