Summer Riding

MAY – OCTOBER

We have created a week-long riding package that includes epic long days out in the backcountry of the Tuscan Apennines, mixed with more shuttle focused days on the Alpi Apuane mountain range where we take you on adrenaline filled purpose-built runs and breath taking tracks of the coast, with full uplift service.

As our trails are spread across three locations, every day of riding will be a unique and different experience. It also allows us to tailor your holidays to your group’s skills and preferred riding, from big backcountry days to proper Enduro style training.

BIG MOUNTAIN DAYS

Riding in the Tuscan Apennines is all about having backcountry adventures and descending on never-ending ridgelines. Although we take full advantage of our 9-seater vans and bike trailers to get you to the top, it still requires some pedal power before we ride down the phenomenal single tracks through pine forests and medieval towns to the custom-built tracks of the locals.

COASTAL DAYS

The famous Marble Mountains of Massa-Carrara have been hosting Enduro events for decades now. Through working closely with the local mountain bikers and trail builders, we have put together epic days of descending madness to keep the gravity freaks entertained! Expect custom-built tracks with jumps, drops and berms – rocky, demanding terrain with the van to be waiting at the bottom of every trail to take you up again.

ENDURO DAYS

Many of us are now involved in Enduro events in one way or the other, and getting that essential training for such events can give you a great advantage over the field. That’s why we have capitalised on the abundance of professional Enduro courses (Toscano Enduro Series) in the area to offer customised days or weeks that can help you master your skills or fitness.

ALPINE RIDING COACHING

Everyone should have the chance to hone their Alpine skills whilst on a riding holiday. Therefore we provide free tutorials to coach and improve techniques like switchbacks, manuals, vision and trail awareness, to basic suspension and bike set-up advice.

Summer Accommodation

FULLY CATERED AGRITURISMO

Ridgeline’s guests are all based together in the beautiful Agriturismo Venturo, situated in the heart of the Garfagnana Valley. The Agriturismo comes with three guesthouses, a restaurant, a bar, a big outdoor pool and an outside area with a beach volleyball field and table soccer. You will stay in spacious mezzanine bedrooms that are equipped with a living and kitchen area and en-suite bathroom.

AUTHENTIC FOOD

The restaurant of the Agriturismo is locally famed for its delicious traditional food. In the morning you can enjoy a full continental breakfast, including the famous Italian coffee to kick start your day. Back after riding in the evening, a traditional Tuscan and locally sourced two-course dinner with complimentary wine and water, will be served, all included in your package.

For lunch we will stop at one of the local restaurants where you can expect to pay around €10 for a typical Tuscan midday meal.

BIKE STORAGE AND WORKSHOP

Incorporated into the Agriturismo we have built a fully private, lockable professional bike storage and maintenance garage. Everything you need to build and maintain your bike is available to you 24/7 with our full Park Tool set-up, air compressor and jet wash area. The garage is located directly next to your private guesthouse, which means you are never more than a few metres away from your loved one!
