The coastline between Pisa and Livorno features long sandy beaches, shaded Mediterranean pine forests, and gentle slopes: an ideal setting for cycling tourism. Within a few kilometers, you can go from the sea to the hills, discovering different panoramas at every turn.
In addition to the cycle paths along the promenade, there are numerous routes to explore by bike in the area. The most scenic itineraries traverse vineyards and olive groves, fields, villages, and groves just a short distance from the sea. Along the local roads, which are almost always free of traffic, you cycle immersed in Mediterranean scents. The best times for cycling tourism along the coast are definitely spring and autumn when nature displays its beauty, and the roads are less crowded.
The small inland villages are ideal destinations to discover by bike, but the great art cities of Pisa and Livorno are absolutely unmissable. By taking advantage of cycle paths and alleys in the historic center, you can reach Piazza dei Miracoli or the panoramic Terrazza Mascagni by bike.
Mountain bike enthusiasts, on the other hand, can find numerous dirt trails in the Parco Naturale di Migliarino, San Rossore e Massaciuccoli right behind the beach.
