The tour is a 32 km loop with about 600 m of elevation gain, ideal for those looking for a scenic and varied ride with climbs, flowing sections, and beautiful views over the valley. After the first kilometers, the route passes through Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, the historic heart of the valley, along quiet roads, woods, and views that reflect the authentic character of the area. The ride then climbs toward Mont Alfonso Fortress, one of the most iconic points of the tour, with wide views over the Apuan Alps, the Apennines, and the surrounding Garfagnana hills. Bring water, snacks, and a charged phone to enjoy the ride with peace of mind.

What to expect

  1. Castelnuovo di Garfagnana
    Pass by
    Castelnuovo di Garfagnana is a town and comune in the province of Lucca, Tuscany, central Italy. It is located in the historical region of Garfagnana, at the confluence of the Serchio and the Turrite Secca rivers, close to the intersection of roads passing through the Apennine Mountains and the Apuan Alps
  2. La Fortezza di Mont’Alfonso
    15m · Admission ticket not included
    Mont’Alfonso Fortress is one of the most impressive monuments in the Serchio Valley. It stands just above Castelnuovo Garfagnana, only a few minutes from the town center, and covers an area of about 60,000 square meters, offering beautiful views over the slopes of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines and the Panie group in the Apuan Alps. It was built between 1579 and 1586 by order of Alfonso II d’Este, based on a design by Marc’Antonio Pasi, to defend Castelnuovo and the Este territory from the Republic of Lucca. The people of Garfagnana also contributed to its construction with the remarkable sum of 30,000 scudi. According to a local legend, the fortress was linked by an underground tunnel to the Rocca Ariostesca, used as a secret passage in case of siege. Today the center of Castelnuovo can be reached on foot along the Ariosto Path, a scenic and romantic walk much loved by visitors.
