Bikepacking de Florence a Bologna

Get ready for an epic cycling adventure between two of Italy's most beautiful cities! Starting in Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, you'll have the chance to soak in stunning architecture and art before hitting the pedals. The route winds its way north to Bologna, a city renowned for its mouthwatering cuisine and vibrant cultural scene.

This ride is a bit of a trek at 156 kilometers and definitely not for the faint-hearted with over 4500 meters of ascent. A significant chunk of your journey will be on quiet roads and cycleways, perfect for enjoying the rolling hills and picturesque countryside that Italy is famous for. At certain points, you'll be climbing up to 1154 meters, so make sure your legs (and your brakes) are ready for the effort.

The path varies quite a bit with 59% of the surface details missing, but expect a decent portion of asphalt and the occasional shifts into gravel or ground surfaces. Once you roll into Bologna, you'll be ready to indulge in a well-earned plate of tagliatelle al ragù. Enjoy the ride, and don't forget to capture the views—the landscapes are breathtaking!
