Gita in bici di un giorno da Spoleto a Assisi

This scenic ride takes you from Spoleto to Assisi, threading through the rolling green heart of Umbria. You’ll start in Spoleto, a charming hill town famous for its Roman history and as the home of the annual Festival dei Due Mondi. From there, pedal along predominantly paved, quiet roads and dedicated cycleways, soaking up views of olive groves, vineyards, and sleepy villages.

The ride itself is about 53 km with a gentle climb and descent, so it's great if you want a workout without major mountain passes. Along the way, the landscape shifts as you skirt the edge of the Valle Umbra, eventually approaching the silhouette of Assisi, topped by the majestic Basilica of St. Francis—a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a pilgrimage magnet for art lovers and the spiritually curious alike.

This route's mix of cycleways and quiet roads makes it perfect for enjoying Umbria’s countryside at a relaxed pace. Don’t forget a camera—you’ll want to capture the approach to Assisi with its medieval skyline!
