Questions?
F.A.Q.
When do I start and when do I need to be back?
You pick up your pack on 19, 20 or 21 May 2027, on the day and in the time slot you choose when you register. Once you have your pack, you're free to start whenever you like.
Start and finish are at the Fiera di Venturina, Viale della Fiera 3/B in Venturina Terme, in the municipality of Campiglia Marittima. They are down on the plain, not in the old village on the hill. Keep it in mind when you book where to sleep.
The organisation stays at the Fiera until 25 May 2027, and the finish opening hours are in the event guide. Arriving after the 25th is not a problem, but you won't find anyone from our team and you won't be able to collect the end-of-event pack.
How much does the Tuscany Trail 2027 cost?
The Classic ticket costs € 99, No Stress € 199. No Stress opens on 3 December 2026 at 12:00, Classic on 4 December at 11:00.
What each ticket includes, item by item, is on the Registration page.
Classic or No Stress?
They are the two Tuscany Trail 2027 tickets. Classic costs € 99 and includes everything you need to live the event, from the tracks of every route to the web app, from the starter and finisher pack to insurance.
No Stress costs € 199 and opens one day earlier, on 3 December at 12:00 instead of 4 December at 11:00 for Classic, so you choose your pack pick-up day and time before Classic riders. It also includes the rh+ jersey and the cotton finisher T-shirt.
The full comparison is on the Registration page.
What is the bundle?
It's your Tuscany Trail 2027 entry together with a second Bike Adventure Series adventure, chosen among Trentino Gravel, The Grand Escape and Unpaved Roads. For the Tuscany Trail you choose Classic or No Stress.
It opens on 1 November 2026 at 11:00, one month before single entries. Places are limited, and when a combination sells out it disappears.
All combinations are on the Bundle page.
Can I take part on my own?
Yes, and many people do. There are 6,000 of us on the same road, so there is always someone to ride a stretch with, share a table with or meet in the evening at the Base Camps.
In the 2026 survey, finishers rated their travel companions 4.7 out of 5.
Where do I sleep and eat? Do I need a tent?
There are no set stages. You stop wherever you like to eat and sleep, and a tent is not compulsory. In 2026, 55% of riders slept only in hotels and B&Bs.
Along the route you'll find hotels, farm stays, B&Bs and the Base Camps. In the most beautiful areas it pays to book early, which is why you receive the provisional track after you register. Google Maps and booking.com work well to search and book.
To eat, there are bars, trattorias and grocery shops in the villages you ride through. Many shops close in the early afternoon, so stock up in the morning.
What are the Base Camps?
They are spaces along the route where you can pitch your tent and spend the evening with the other riders. They are run by the communities and municipalities of the villages we pass through, not by the organisation, so showers, toilets, food and capacity vary from one Base Camp to another.
You get in with your event wristband, as long as there is room. The list of Base Camps with the services of each one is in the event guide, in your personal area.
How do I get to Campiglia Marittima and where do I leave my car?
Almost three riders out of four arrive by car. At the Fiera di Venturina there are car parks reserved for participants, where your car can stay for your whole journey. The exact directions are in the event guide.
By train, get off at Campiglia Marittima station. Bike spaces on trains are few and go quickly on pick-up days, so plan ahead. There is no luggage or bike box storage at the event, so leave them at the place where you sleep before the start.
Airports, trains and roads are explained on the How to get there page.
What is the best bike to ride the Tuscany Trail?
This is undoubtedly one of the most frequently asked questions by participants. Let’s clarify right away that the route is designed to be ridden on a gravel bike, and it is doable and enjoyable on a MTB too. The trail is extremely varied and covers gravel roads, secondary paved roads, and trails. Over the years, participants have used all kinds of bikes, from cyclocross to enduro. On a gravel bike you’ll be fast on gravel roads and tarmac. On a MTB you’ll be more comfortable on the roughest sections and a little slower on tarmac.
E-bike
E-bikes are accepted at the Tuscany Trail.
When do I receive the track?
After you register you receive the provisional track of every route, Detour included. Use it to study the route and book where to sleep.
The final track arrives close to the event, because the route can change until a few days before the start.
Medical certificate
All participants MUST present a competitive medical certificate for Cycling issued by a Sports Medical Center or a Doctor, and valid at the time of submission. The medical certificate must expire after June 30, 2027. If the certificate is not compliant, it will be rejected and canceled, and the registrant will have to provide a new valid one. The medical certificate must specifically be for CYCLING.
We cannot accept medical certificates issued for other sports such as triathlon, athletics, etc. Those who do not comply with this requirement will not be considered officially registered and will not be entitled to a refund of the registration fee. Each participant must declare, under D.P.R. no. 445 of December 28, 2000, that the documents they submit are truthful and correspond to the originals in their possession. The valid certificate must be uploaded to the designated area by April 15, 2027. If you are not resident in Italy, you can use the template provided in your user area.
What documents are required for registration?
None at the time of registration. Completing the registration process is sufficient. Later, you will be required to submit the medical certificate via the dedicated section on the website (you no longer need to send the certificate via email). SEE ABOVE.
Are Tuscany Trail registrations limited?
Yes. To ensure each participant has the best possible experience on the ground, we limit the number of participants per pack pick-up day and time slot. If you already have a day in mind, we recommend that you sign up before it runs out.
Registrations are already closed. Is there any way to still register?
There’s no way to register for the Tuscany Trail outside the official registration period. We receive many emails from people asking to register after the registration window has closed. The registration period lasts several months, and this is the only opportunity to register. We strongly recommend subscribing to our newsletter and checking it regularly. We’ll remind you of important dates.
I am regularly registered but can no longer participate. Is there a refund?
As per the rules, which you must read before registering, there is no refund/partial refund/transfer of registration to the following year.
Event Cancellation or Postponement
Cancellation – If, for reasons beyond the control of the organization, such as environmental or health-related issues on a national or international level, the event cannot take place, the fee paid at the time of registration will not be refunded but will be considered valid for the following edition. However, the organization reserves the right to charge a small fee for administrative and membership renewal costs to those registered for the next edition.
Postponement –Additionally, for reasons beyond our control or other serious reasons that may jeopardize the preparation or participation of at least half of the registered participants, the organization reserves the right to change the date and/or location of the event within the same calendar year. In this case, the registration fee will remain valid for the rescheduled event, without any additional costs for the participants. It is not possible to transfer the registration to the following year in this case.
