Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Monteriggioni do Siena

Ready to pedal from the enchanting medieval walled town of Monteriggioni to the stunning city of Siena? This roughly 20-kilometer journey is a delightful ride through the heart of Tuscany. Starting in Monteriggioni, where the impressive 13th-century fortifications still stand strong, you’ll soon find yourself immersed in the rolling Siena hills.

The route is a mix of asphalt and charming cobblestone roads, with a sprinkle of Tuscany's classic unpaved paths thrown in for good measure. Climbing gradually, you'll ascend around 494 meters—ideal for working up a slight sweat and soaking in those panoramic vineyard views.

The majority of the ride is along quiet roads perfect for taking in the scenery, though you'll encounter some busier stretches, so just keep an eye out. As you weave along paths and tracks, imagine the historic Via Francigena pilgrims who once walked these same steps.

Arriving in Siena is a treat in itself. With its iconic Piazza del Campo and the breathtaking Duomo, you’ve hit one of Italy’s gems. Don’t forget to reward your efforts with a scoop of gelato. Buon viaggio!
