For bike lovers, it should be noted that every year Gaiole in Chianti hosts the beautiful historic "Eroica" race, a vintage cycling tour on mostly unpaved roads. It is an event that re-proposes environments and sets of pre-war cycling, dust or mud, no technical assistance, vintage refreshments, stupendous and difficult roads, great spirit of sacrifice and adaptation. The path of "L'Eroica" runs along some of the most beautiful roads in the Sienese Chianti, Valdarbia and Valdorcia areas; but the highlight is represented by those stretches of white roads that still exist, which allow you to relive the atmosphere of vintage cycling.
For lovers of trekking and Nordic walking, we point out the fact that Casa Vacanze Il Corno is located along nature trails that, through vineyards and olive groves, lead to the small surrounding villages, such as the beautiful village of Volpaia, from which you can enjoy one unique spectacle, thanks to the view over the Chianti hills and the characteristic village of Radda in Chianti. We look forward to helping you organize personalized itineraries, with different levels of difficulty, according to your tastes and habits.
