At the passage under the bridge, take the left side (if you come from Rome) and vice versa, as it is wider.

Unique archaeological site of its kind, starting from a central area of Rome, it represents for several kilometers a very rich testimony of the Imperial era.
Always open, it can be explored both by bike and on foot

The Via Appia is one of those paths that everyone should pedal or walk sooner or later

A route rich in history… and in nature. To go on foot or by bike ... you will feel like you are walking in ancient Rome

Easy and scenic route that the world envies us, with ancient Roman villas (Massenzio, Quintilii, etc.) and monumental tombs such as Cecilia Metella. Too bad for some unfortunate person who doesn't want to go to the eco-island and throw away the washing machine. Up to via di Fioranello the route has sections of pavé that can be traveled by mountain bike with small paved sections that can be avoided by taking the lateral dirt sections. From via di Fioranello onwards the pavé practically disappears and it becomes entirely dirt.

The Via Appia is one of the rockiest flat stretches that I know. It's incredibly fun to ride here and race along the small side trails. Falling chains, jumping gears and an eerie clatter add to the amusement.
