Itineraries

Day 1

Piombino - Island of Elba

Our adventure on two wheels begins on the Tuscan coast in the city of Piombino where the RCM Staff will welcome you with a support van where you can leave your luggage. From here to the end of the tour you will no longer need a car! We will then start pedaling directly from the port for the first beautiful ride together with a local guide on the paths immersed in nature and history along the Etruscan Coast, up to Populonia.
Here a typical lunch will restore our strength after the morning in the saddle before visiting the ruins of what was once one of the largest and most important Etruscan and Roman cities.
We then set off again on our mountain bikes for a series of spectacular trails that take us to the sea and then go up inland and return to the port where the ferry to the island of Elba awaits us.
One-hour sailing is just what we need to relax with an aperitif and think back on the best moments of the day!
Disembarked in Portoferraio, a transfer takes us to the beautiful Porto Azzurro where a hot shower and a well-deserved dinner await us.

Day 2

Mount Calamita

At breakfast, while we look at the boats moored in the port, it seems to us that we have been on vacation for a lifetime and think that the best is yet to come!
With a short transfer we reach Capoliveri where the ride starts that will take us to explore Monte Calamita and the remains of the mines scattered throughout the promontory between an idyllic beach and a sea that seems painted.
We would keep pedaling to see the next cove hidden around the corner if it weren't for the hunger that makes us stop just in time for lunch!
After the lunch break, it’s time for an epic ride that will take us back to the top of the world before giving us a breathtaking descent to Porto Azzurro where an aperitif by the sea is waiting for us.
The day ends with a dinner in a typical restaurant a few steps from the hotel.

Day 3

Lacona

Unfortunately it is already time to close the bags but we do not despair because there is still a whole day ahead of us.
After breakfast, in fact, a short transfer takes us to Lacona from where today's ride starts. The morning takes us first inland to reach the start of a beautiful descent into the woods, then we go up again to get to take one of the most panoramic trails on the island, the breathtaking views of the Lacona bay will force us to stop for a few photos before leave for lunch at km0 that will make us savor all the flavors of Elba.
The afternoon ride allows us to say goodbye to the splendid island of Elba and its trails that have hosted us and given us so many emotions. At the end of the tour a shower and it's time to get on the shuttle that takes us to take the ferry back to Piombino.
