E-bike tours around Rieti and the Sabina

Rieti

Rieti calls itself the middle of Italy, and behind it there is gravel in every direction: lake reserves, hermitages, a high plateau, and the valley Francis of Assisi walked. A motor makes that a morning out rather than a training plan.

How the day goes

  1. Pick the route with them — the lake reserve, the Sabina around Cottanello, the high plain at Rascino.
  2. Gravel roads and farm tracks, with villages and hermitages turning up along the way.
  3. Back into Rieti, the sanctuaries of the Valle Santa on the road home.

The guide and the bike are priced apart, so if you have brought your own wheels you are only paying for the way.

Where it is
