Gita in bici di un giorno da Lucca a Pisa

This scenic cycling route takes you from the charming walled city of Lucca to the iconic city of Pisa—yes, home of the famous Leaning Tower! Covering just under 29 km, the ride is mostly flat with only a gentle ascent and descent along the way, making it a relaxing trip suitable for most riders.

You'll start pedaling through Lucca’s lush outskirts, quickly leaving behind the city’s Renaissance walls. The route is pretty friendly for cyclists: about 70% on quiet roads and dedicated cycle paths, so you can enjoy the Tuscan countryside without much traffic stress. About half the surfaces are paved or asphalted, but expect some sections on gravel—nothing too wild, just enough for a bit of adventure.

Keep an eye out for picturesque olive groves and sleepy villages as you make your way toward Pisa. Once you arrive, don’t forget to snap a classic selfie with the Leaning Tower and take a quick stroll around the historic heart of the city.

All in all, this is a lovely day trip, mixing history, scenery, and a true taste of Tuscany by bike!
