E-BIKE TO THE SCARLINO COAST
BY E-BIKE TO THE SCARLINO COAST
A PATH IMMERSED IN NATURE, OVERLOOKING THE SEA
An exciting route, which is easy to pedal on E-Bikes, taking us to Cala Violina, one of the most beautiful and evocative places in Italy.
- Unspoiled nature
- Cala Violina, one of the most beautiful beaches in Italy
- Eco-sustainable tourism
Meet the participants at our Partner’s Store in Follonica, e-bikes and helmets to be assigned. Welcome breakfast, preparation briefing and familiarisation with the e-bike. We will set off along the seafront at Follonica, admiring the Gulf that leads from Piombino to Punta Ala, protected by the beautiful Elba Island; on a clear day, you will feel as if you can touch the island with your finger. Continuing towards the Puntone di Scarlino, we will take the cycle path which is completely shaded due to the thick pine forest. On arrival at Puntone, we will have a short stop to visit the marshy area and the Porto Scabris Archeological Museum (MAPS), a delightful museum that houses numerous archaeological finds accumulated over the centuries on the seabed of the Puntone di Scarlino area, which reveal the intense volume of merchant ships since the third century BC. We carry on towards Costiere, the protected area set in the green of a luscious Mediterranean scrub, which is home to rocky and sandy coves of rare beauty. The most famous one, Cala Martina, remembered for the passage of Garibaldi before the unification of Italy, and Cala Violina, which is one of the most beautiful places in Italy and which owes its name to the sound that the delicate sand produces when you walk on it. Time for a swim in the crystal clear sea. Of no less beauty are the Cala Felice and Punta Francese beaches. Going back along the beautiful path, return to Follonica, where you hand back your E-Bikes on arrival. The excursion ends at around 1 pm.
