Highlights
Overall 2h bike tour: The departure time varies from 6:20 PM to 7:30 PM depending on the season. An experience full of 'Good Vibes'. The energy of the sunset and the return to twilight. The unspoiled nature, the non-existent traffic (we are in the middle of Mount Calamita with the 1st country, Capoliveri, 7km away on a dirt road), will make the whole thing truly special. The tour will take place on Monte Calamita and then head, for bikers with a minimum of experience, towards Innamorata beach. Technically easy but unpaved, which therefore requires a minimum of bike experience. Return to twilight, turning on the light on the bike (if needed), towards the starting point (Elba MTB Capoliveri, in the center of the Tenuta delle Ripalte) via a dirt road of about 30 minutes. Possibility, after the tour, of eating something at the bar or restaurant of the Tenuta delle Ripalte facility.

Itinerary
Here, where the green of the Mediterranean maquis fades into the blue of the sea, lies our Tenuta delle Ripalte resort on the Island of Elba, on the Costa dei Gabbiani. A place away from chaos and close to heaven, where time stops and follows the slow pace of nature, where the rust-red earth nourishes centuries-old pine trees and precious vines. Tenuta delle Ripalte is located 9 km from the town of Capoliveri on Monte Calamita, reachable after 4 km of white road, a suggestive route, which prepares you for your arrival in this special place immersed in a dimension of peace that only the most pristine can give.
There were several extraction points on Monte Calamita and you will be able to see the characteristic places where the minerals used to create iron were extracted. Cycling on completely red lands at sunset is an unforgettable experience.
Innamorata beach is on the southern slope of Monte Calamita (Capoliveri). Once called Cala de lo Ferro, it is in fact located on the edge of the area of the old iron mines, one of the wildest and least urbanized areas of the Island of Elba. The remaining time on the tour will be used to travel between attractions.

About Isola d'Elba
Elba is the largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago, with beaches, mountain trails, old iron mines and the villas where Napoleon lived in exile.
Elba lies off the Tuscan coast, the largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago and the third largest in Italy. Its main town, Portoferraio, is a harbour ringed by Medici fortresses, and above it stand the villas where Napoleon lived during his exile in 1814 and 1815. The island has been mined for iron since Etruscan times, and the ground near Rio Marina still shows rust-red earth.
