Colle Val d’Elsa is an enchanting medieval village located in the heart of Tuscany. If you wish to explore this beautiful area in a unique and sustainable way, our e-bike tour is the perfect choice. Get ready to enjoy an unforgettable day in the history and beauty of Valdelsa.
Riding a modern e-bike you will visit the historical centre of Colle Val d’Elsa, where you can admire the Renaissance architecture and characteristic streets that have remained unchanged over time. You will then venture into the beautiful countryside, riding on the white roads of rolling hills and on stretches of the famous Via Francigena, surrounded by evocative vineyards and charming olive groves.
During the tour you will have the opportunity to discover important historical and cultural places such as the majestic Abbey of Santa Maria Assunta and the Baluardo, the city’s defensive bastion overlooking the valley below. You will be fascinated by all the treasures this part of Tuscany hides, passing through sites with a typical medieval character and enjoying surprising views of the Tuscan landscape.
In the warmer months you can dive into the cool waters of the various springs that feed the Elsa river, such as the famous “Vene di Onci”, a small stream rich in water and characterised by the presence of small, picturesque bridges that cross it, or the ancient “Bagni delle Caldane”, a pool dating back to Etruscan-Roman times, whose waters, rich in mineral salts, are ideal for purifying the skin.
An unmissable stop on the tour will be a visit to a local farm, where you can restore your energy by enjoying delicious traditional dishes that will delight your palate with authentic Tuscan flavours, accompanied by a good glass of wine.
Our daily e-bike tour in Colle Val d’Elsa is perfect for those who wish to immerse themselves in the beauty and history of this part of Tuscany in an active, relaxing and unique way.
