The land of Franciacorta is pure poetry: castles, villages, nature reserves, good wine.
A wonderful landscape that deserves to be discovered slowly and carefully, as only an e-bike allows you to do.
The roads to travel wind through inclined terraces, vineyards, monasteries and can also include a wonderful experience of tasting the famous bubbles.
5 different cycle routes are created from the types of bubbles, created by the “Strada del vino Franciacorta” association and which aim to discover this fascinating area.
