Exploring San Gimignano by bike is a different way of discovering Tuscany: freer, closer to the landscape, and perfectly suited to those who like to move at the pace of the hills. As soon as you leave the cobbled streets, the countryside opens up, with its vineyards, cypress trees and quiet lanes winding between small hamlets and views of medieval towers.

A short outing is enough to feast your eyes. A few pedal strokes and you're on your way to panoramic roads around the town, ideal for a late-morning or late-afternoon loop, when the light softens the relief. Photo enthusiasts will appreciate the natural lookouts, while gourmets can aim for a stop at a nearby farm or village for a simple, tasty break.
