Description

Nice to Venice by bike: this 13-day route links the Riviera, Liguria, Tuscany, the Apennines and lagoon country. From Nice, it follows the coast past the Monaco area, Sanremo and Genova, then crosses Passo del Bracco towards La Spezia, Lucca and Florence. After that come the Chianti hills, Siena, the Crete Senesi, Anghiari and the serious crossing over Passo di Viamaggio to San Marino. Further north, the road flattens through Romagna, the Po Delta, Padova and the Brenta corridor to the edge of Venice.
