Who is in the region with the racing bike actually has to go to Volterra. An espresso on a piazza and soak up the flair of this beautiful old town. In addition, the view, which is due to the hillside location, terrific. Also all up (and also Ab-) rides are among the delicacies in the region.

From Saline to Volterra

Highlight (Segment) • Settlement

Volterra is one of the most beautiful Tuscan towns of Etruscan and medieval origins, rich in historic buildings and also known for the processing of alabaster. Perched on a 500 meter high hill, it offers spectacular views of the Val d'Era. It can be reached via the SR 68, which is characterized in the last section by tight curves and a slope of about four to five percent.

View of Gello

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Very quiet side street in good condition and with moderate slope. Great view first into the valley (see photo) and later over to the next mountain ridge.

View of Montecatini Val di Cecina

Highlight • Viewpoint

The village of Montecatini Val di Cecina is located among the picturesque hills of Valdicecina, a few kilometers from the historic city of Volterra. Anciently known as Monte Leone (Castrum Montis Leonis), this place has a long history of territorial disputes between the cities of Pisa and Volterra, before becoming part of the possessions of Florence in 1472.

The history of Montecatini is closely linked to the nearby copper mines of Caporciano, which have a thousand-year history, dating back to the Etruscan era, and which remained active until the early twentieth century.
