Overview

Visit beautiful lake Albano and the hilltop town of Castel Gandolfo with a quality Bosch-equipped Cannondale E-mountain bike (with antipuncture tires and comfortable saddle).

With our expert guide, discover the Ancient Appian Way, the Caffarella Valley and the Park of the Aqueducts before taking a 30' journey by train to the medieval hilltop town of Castel Gandolfo (the summer residence of the Pope).

Take a stroll through this hamlet before reaching the lake and stopping for an Italian lunch with a lakeside view. Then take a leisurely downhill descent along the Ancient Appian Way to Rome. The route is mostly off-road and is aimed at intermediate-level cyclists and covers a distance of roughly 32 miles (50km).
