Tuscany Trail 2023

The Tuscany Trail is the world’s largest bikepacking event held every year in Tuscany. Hundreds of cyclists from more than 30 countries around the world join every edition.

Experience a unique 470km adventure that will allow you to cross enchanted forests and thousand-year-old towns. It will be a challenge to yourself and an emotion that will remain forever in your heart.

Entries for 2023 open on 9 January.

The search for the “perfect” route began back in 2003 and has not been completed yet. Tuscany is a wonderful region that offers perfect cycling routes. Every year, participants are offered a track that best embodies the experience of the Tuscany Trail. Less and less asphalt, less and less unnecessary kilometres and more and more concentration of beauty.

You will cycle on the famous Strade Bianche, through vineyards and dense forests. You will find out that the famous “rolling” hills of Tuscany are not so “rolling” and that there will always be a surprise behind every bend from the start to the finish.

The route is varied and includes dirt roads, paths, cart roads and asphalt.

ONE STAGE

The route will be one long lap; you decide where & when to stop to eat and where & when (and if) to stop to sleep. Absolute freedom of choice.

GPS

Follow the whole route using the GPS track that will be sent to you after registering. You have to follow the whole route without shortcuts. Pure riding joy from the first to the last kilometre.

SELF-SUPPORTED

No assistance from the organisers, and no support vehicles in tow; just you and your bike.

NO STOPWATCH

There is no time limit; you decide the pace and the time of arrival at the finish. Regardless it shall be a great adventure.

Registration for 2023

Entries for the next edition of the Tuscany Trail will open at midday on 9 January 2023. In the meantime, you can find news, advice and discussion on the event Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/424198504449225/

New for 2023, the departure will be divided into two days. Riders can choose to start on Thursday 1st June or Friday 2nd June.

The starting point will remain the same: the Donoratico Sughere Park on the splendid Tuscan coast facing the sea.

In front of the park you will have a large parking area, inside the park there will be the village with the stands of the sponsors and the restaurant where you can start eating the best of Tuscan cuisine.

Don't miss your chance to experience one of the most enjoyable bikepacking events of the year!
