Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Greve in Chianti à Florence

Saddle up for a beautiful ride from Greve in Chianti to Florence! Starting in the heart of Chianti wine country, you’ll leave the quaint market square of Greve behind and head north through rolling vineyards and olive groves. Expect a mix of surfaces: paved stretches, gravel, and some scenic unpaved tracks—perfect for anyone seeking a dose of Tuscan adventure.

The route is hilly (over 900 meters of climbing!), but the views are worth every pedal stroke. You’ll pass ancient farmhouses and might catch a waft of rosemary or ripe grapes if you visit late summer. As you near Florence, the countryside gives way to city outskirts, and before you know it, you’re rolling right into the Renaissance capital itself. Take a moment to celebrate with a gelato, and don’t forget to check out the Duomo—your legs have earned it!

Total distance is just over 42 kilometers, so pace yourself, especially on the climbs. This is classic Tuscany: a little wild, always picturesque, and a cycling memory you won’t forget.
