  Cappella Madonna di Vitaleta

  Depending on the group’s level, we can choose to visit the Chapel of Vitaleta—one of the most iconic spots in Tuscany. Framed by rolling hills and cypress trees, this small yet enchanting chapel is famous for its appearance in Gladiator, where Maximus envisions his home while walking through the golden fields of Val d’Orcia. A truly magical place that feels suspended in time.

  San Quirico d'Orcia

  Alternatively, instead of visiting the Madonna di Vitaleta, we have a fantastic climb that will truly test the power of our e-bikes, showing that anyone can enjoy an experience with us. This route will take us to Bagno Vignoni Alta, where we’ll enjoy panoramic views over the entire valley. From there, a gentle descent will lead us to the charming town of San Quirico d’Orcia, a beautiful spot to explore and immerse in the authentic Tuscan atmosphere. This route is less common, perfect for those who want to venture off the beaten path and experience something beyond the usual highlights. It offers a more unique and authentic perspective of Tuscany, away from the typical tourist areas.
