Excursión ciclista de un día de Scandicci a Calenzano

Here’s a mellow ride that takes you from Scandicci up to Calenzano, weaving just west of Florence. Scandicci is a lively suburb known for its green spaces and proximity to the Tuscan capital—perfect for a relaxed start. You’ll cover about 24 kilometers, mostly along dedicated cycleways and quiet roads, so expect a comfortable and relatively stress-free journey (with barely any time spent on busy roads).

The route is gently rolling, with only around 80 meters of ascent and a similar descent, making it easygoing for most riders. You’ll be treated to classic Tuscan countryside views as you pedal north, and the surface is almost entirely paved or asphalt, so you won’t be dodging any gravel or dirt.

Your finish line is Calenzano, a small town at the foot of the Apennines, known for its medieval castle and local trattorias. It's a great spot to grab a quick bite or a coffee before heading back or exploring more of the region. Enjoy the ride—this is truly a laid-back Tuscan spin!
