La Via Francigena attraversa come una spina dorsale la Toscana, offrendoci molteplici sfaccettature di questa terra, culla del Rinascimento, ricca di storia, arte e natura.
Il percorso che abbiamo scelto per questo tour in bici è uno dei tratti più belli e suggestivi che possiamo trovare in Toscana. San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, Siena, sono solo alcuni dei luoghi che visiteremo mentre, la campagna con le sue colline disegnate dai filari delle vigne e colorate dai campi di grano, saranno gli scenari perfetti per pedalare lungo le caratteristiche strade bianche tra casali e antiche pievi romaniche.
ITINERARIO
Giorno 1: Arrivo in località Colle Val d’Elsa (Si)
Arrivo individuale e sistemazione in hotel, cena libera.
Giorno 2: Via Francigena San Gimignano – Gambassi Terme 60 Km
Partiremo per il nostro tour che sarà prevalentemente su strade bianche con leggeri sali scendi caratteristici delle colline della campagna senese in direzione San Gimignano, una delle mete più frequentate della Toscana. Visiteremo il suo centro storico racchiuso nella cinta muraria per poi riprendere il viaggio verso Gambassi Terme. Considerata da sempre terra di passo dai pellegrini che percorrevano le via Francigena, è rinomata per il suo stabilimento termale e per la lavorazione del vetro, eseguita ad arte dagli artigiani del luogo, i così detti “bicchierai” di Gambassi, famosi e ricercati in tutta Italia. Ritorno in hotel e cena in struttura.
Giorno 3: Via Francigena Monteriggioni – Siena 65 Km
Il tour di oggi è senza dubbio uno dei tratti più belli e ricchi di cose da vedere di tutta la Via Francigena, un susseguirsi di pievi, castelli, fortezze, strade e sentieri nella campagna Due luoghi su tutti, Monteriggioni con le sue 14 torri e Siena, la città del Palio con il suo magnifico duomo e la stupenda Piazza del Campo.
