Two Castles, One Valley: Cycling between Monsampietro and Sant’Elpidio Morico

Cycling itinerary through historic villages and hamlets

Perfect for those who want to experience the area on two wheels, between nature and small communities

An ideal itinerary for those who want to explore the villages of Valdaso with lightness and wonder. From the walls of Monsampietro Morico, you ride to the hamlet of Sant’Elpidio Morico, where history can still be read in the buildings and traditions of the countryside. Along scenic roads, with gentle climbs and descents and never-challenging elevations, the journey becomes an experience of freedom and discovery.

Each stage is an invitation to stop and observe: the simplicity of a spring, the beauty of an ancient parish church, the outline of a castle appearing among olive groves and vineyards. The return to the village gives a final view of the valley, bright and quiet in its perfection.

A tour that combines history, nature and outdoor activities, perfect for e-bikes and gravel bikes.
