Stage 1

Firenze → Pontassieve

Distance

18.9 km

Elevation

+495 m

Difficulty: moderate

Difficulty is computed, not judged: distance in km plus 1 km for every 100 m of climb. Up to 18 is easy, up to 28 moderate, above 28 hard. It doesn't account for terrain, heat or exposure, so read the route's own note too.

Memories of Renaissance masterpieces fade quickly as this stage travels along quiet bends of the scenic Arno River and briefly among olive groves before coming to modern, but charming Pontassieve.
