Miles of trails through ancient chestnut forest, open farmland and high Apennine ridges — all accessible from Il Vigno's front gate.
The farm sits at the edge of a network of forest tracks, gravel roads and valley paths. Clip in, roll out the gate and you're immediately in it — no car needed, no shuttle required.
The white roads (strade bianche) of the Valtiberina connect farms, villages and forest. Hundreds of kilometres, almost all traffic-free.
Natural, unmarked singletrack threads through chestnut and oak forest above the farm. Ask us for the trails we ride — most cyclists never find them.
Quiet provincial roads link Caprese, Anghiari and Pieve Santo Stefano. Long gradual climbs, spectacular views, almost no traffic.
Easy · 12 km · 45–60 min
Flat gravel circuit along the Singerna valley through farmland, with views up to Caprese on the hill above. Easy riding on any bike — perfect warm-up or relaxed afternoon spin.
Moderate · 22 km · 1.5–2 hrs · 600m gain
Forestry tracks climb through dense chestnut and oak forest to high panoramic clearings, then technical descents on packed earth back to the valley. Best on a hardtail or full-suspension MTB.
Challenging · 35 km · 3–4 hrs · 1,100m gain
A full-day adventure into the Parco Nazionale delle Foreste Casentinesi — mule tracks, ridgeline fire roads and singletrack descents through beech forest. Some hike-a-bike sections at the top. Full-suspension recommended.
Moderate · 45 km · 2–2.5 hrs
Classic road cycling loop through Anghiari and back via Pieve Santo Stefano. Quiet provincial roads, long gradual climbs and open views across the upper Tiber valley. A local favourite.
