Sortie rapide à vélo de Florence à Fiesole

Ready for a quick climb and a taste of Tuscan history? This ride takes you from the heart of Florence up to the charming hilltop town of Fiesole—just over 8 km, but it packs a punch with almost 300 meters of ascent!

You’ll roll out from Florence’s Renaissance center, with its famous Duomo and buzzing piazzas. The route winds mostly along quiet roads and some dedicated cycleways, so you can focus on the scenery (and those climbs). As you leave the city hustle, you'll find yourself pedaling through lush olive groves and cypress-lined vistas—classic postcard Tuscany.

The final push brings you to Fiesole, perched above Florence at around 300 meters elevation. Your reward? Sweeping views over Florence’s rooftops, plus Fiesole’s own treasures: Roman ruins, an ancient amphitheater, and a perfect gelato stop before cruising back down. Grab your camera—you’ll want to remember this one!
