Dettaglio tour - Bike in Umbria

The Greenway del Nera is made up of dirt paths that run along the Nera river and make its territory usable in a slow and very low impact mode. It is nothing more than the set of different routes: the Benedictine itineraries, the Via Francigena di San Francesco and the former Spoleto Norcia railway, all connected to form a well-marked ring of about 180 km.

Our proposal will allow you to appreciate its beauty, riding an excellent e-Bike, accompanied by an expert guide.
