Hiking and Biking Holidays in Italy

Italy’s coasts and islands are spectacular, mountainous affairs while the interior is probably the most civilised rural scene on earth. It is perfect terrain for exploration — whether languid and slow or fast and adrenalin-fuelled.
Italy is divided into 20 regions after growing up as a collection of independent city-states. There are few better ways to experience the different cultures, food and customs than on foot or by two wheels. And there are 22 national parks to enrich the experience — from following in the tracks of the endangered brown bear and wolf in Abruzzo — to the fiery lava land of Sicily’s Mt Etna, Europe’s extremely active volcano.
Cycling is a passion for the Italians who idolise the sporting greats on two wheels and motorists, perhaps surprisingly, are very courteous and encouraging to cyclists. As gentle or exhilarating as you choose, cycling in Italy is a passionate affair.
Whether walking or cycling, many operators transport bags between hotels, mercifully freeing up panniers and backpacks. And even for gentle tours, such as the paths winding through the lush landscape of vineyards and hazelnut groves of Piedmont, it would be sacrilege not to carry back a little souvenir. White truffles, cheeses, hazelnut delights, or the velvety red Barolo, known as the ‘king of wines’, are just some of the rich pickings.
Umbria, Italy's ‘green heart’ is a stunningly beautiful region waiting to be discovered. Meander or bike through truffle-laden forests, vineyard-covered valleys and rolling pastureland..And discover the well-preserved medieval hill towns with their Renaissance art and relics from Umbria’s glorious Roman and Etruscan past.

Tours can be as energetic or relaxing as you like. You could cycle an organised coast to coast ride from the Adriatic in the east to the Tuscan coastline in the west, passing through the Marche, Umbrian hills and into the Tuscan mountains before descending to the blue sea. Or you could take a starry-eyed walk along the Via dell’Amore (lovers’ path) above the glorious Cinque Terre in Liguria, where five villages cling to the rocky coastline, defying gravity and defying time.
In Italy’s heel, rural Basilicata and Puglia are as unspoiled as they are rich in treasures. Gentle pathways pass through rolling hills, echoing the slower rhythm to daily life of the ‘deep south’ .Pass UNESCO-protected Matera’s unique sassi houses, sculpted into the rocks and be immersed in the local traditions and customs that have survived in the hill-top towns, as if in a time warp.
