About this tour
Ride electric bikes through the Castelli Romani hills southeast of Rome, connecting hilltop villages steeped in papal and local history. This 7-hour day trip combines train travel from central Rome with assisted cycling across volcanic terrain, passing Lake Albano and finishing in Nemi, renowned for its strawberry harvests. You'll navigate woodland tracks and village lanes with a local guide, stopping for lunch at your choice of trattorias. The e-bike motor handles the climbing; you manage pace and enjoyment.
Highlights
- E-bike through volcanic landscape connecting four historic villages
- Panoramic views across Lake Albano from multiple points

- Woodland paths and quiet village lanes avoid main roads

What to expect
You'll meet your guide in Rome and take a regional train into the Castelli hills together. Once you collect your e-bike, the guide leads you on a circuit through Castel Gandolfo, Ariccia, and Genzano before reaching Nemi. The riding is rolling rather than flat—the electric assistance lets you climb without exhaustion, though you need moderate cycling fitness. Expect woodland stretches, narrow village lanes, and frequent stops for views and photos. You'll break for lunch (your choice, typically €20–€30) before cycling back to the station. Weather can change; a poncho is provided.
