Tuscany has long been a dream destination for travelers, but experiencing it on an electric bike offers an entirely new perspective. Whether you're gliding past vineyards in the countryside, following the trails of ancient civilizations, or pedaling along the cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean, every turn reveals a story waiting to be told.

With an e-bike, Tuscany’s rolling hills become an invitation rather than a challenge. No need to worry about steep climbs or long distances—just focus on the journey, the scent of the sea, and the whispers of history as you ride through centuries-old paths.

E-Bike Routes Along the Tuscan Coast

Each e-bike route along the Tuscan coast offers a unique blend of landscapes, history, and culture. Whether you seek an easy coastal ride or a thrilling off-road adventure, there's a path waiting for you. 

  1. Migliarino, San Rossore, and Massaciuccoli Park

Your journey begins in one of Tuscany’s most breathtaking natural reserves. This park between Pisa and Viareggio offers trails through forests, lagoons, and sandy dunes. As you ride along shaded paths, you might spot graceful flamingos wading in the water or hear the call of a heron overhead.

  1. The Cavalleggeri Route

The Cavalleggeri Route is an ancient scenic trail connecting Livorno to Piombino, offering spectacular views of the Tuscan Archipelago islands. Ideal for those seeking a mix of history, sea, and cycling in a single itinerary. This route follows the historic patrol paths of the Grand Ducal Cavalleggeri, offering a journey through time amid nature and tradition. 

  1. Maremma Park

In the heart of Maremma, your e-bike leads you through untouched nature, from dense Mediterranean forests to unspoiled beaches, and hills dotted with olive trees. In the Maremma Park, you can admire the famous butteri - the Maremma cowboys - as they ride across the reserve’s grasslands.

  1. The Etruscan Coast

For history lovers, few rides compare to the Etruscan Coast, a route that winds from Castiglioncello to San Vincenzo. Here, the road whispers stories of the ancient Etruscan civilization, where the ruins of Baratti and Populonia overlook the sea, and golden beaches invite you for a refreshing pause.

  1. Elba Island

For an even more exclusive adventure, hop on a ferry with your e-bike and set off for Elba Island. With its rolling hills, hidden coves, and panoramic trails, Elba offers an adventure that seamlessly blends nature and history. Feel the thrill of cycling up to ancient fortresses or follow the winding roads that Napoleon himself once traveled.

Choosing an electric bike tour on the Roads of Tuscany also means promoting sustainable tourism. With the development of new cycling routes and the dedication of local communities, Tuscany is becoming increasingly bike-friendly.
