ABRUZZO BIKETOURS 2009

4 different ways to enjoy the pleasure of riding and vacationing in Abruzzo. If you like to move around and see as much as possible of this new cycling Mecca go for our travelling classic Discover Abruzzo or its easier version Cycling in the Parks. If you prefer the comfort of staying in the same fine hotel downtown and ride daily loops then go for L'Aquila and the Best of the Appennini. If biking is not your top priority and you're looking for relaxed rides that leave plenty of time for the rest then click on Abruzzo Easy.
Buone Pedalate!
