Guided Tour - The mountains of the poet
Description
Bike a demanding trail through the Monti Pisani, a territory that marks the natural boundary between Lucca and Pisa. Passing through an arduous rising dirt road and stunning views, we’ll arrive at Passo di Dante, mentioned in the verse XXXIII of Dante's Divine Comedy. Here we’ll rest a while to admire the famous leaning Tower of Pisa and the Tyrrhenian coast from the distance. Once refreshed with a delicious surprise we’ll descend to the pretty village of Santa Maria del Giudice up to the romanic parish of San Giovanni. From here we we'll return to the starting point crossing small roads through meadows and cultivated fields.
