파울리아 최고의 사이클링 경로

Santa Luce is a charming village perched on a hill separating it from the municipality of Chianni, dominated by the blades of wind turbines. The beautiful panorama is complemented by the view of the lake of the same name: it's fascinating despite not being a natural lake, but created about sixty years ago by the Solvay company to supply its plants with water. The lake is elongated, divided into two unequal sections by the road that crosses it. It's not very deep and its water regime depends on seasonal rainfall. However, it is home to a large number of animals, especially birds (some rare in this part of Tuscany, such as ospreys, purple herons, cormorants, mallards, pochards, etc.) that populate its shores among the reeds, scrub, and meadows, so much so that the lake has become a nature reserve managed by the LIPU (Italian League for the Protection of the Italian People's Republic of Italy). The entrance to the LIPU Reserve is located 2 kilometers along the SP 51 - Rosignanina road, between the SR 206 and Santa Luce. You can park your car outside the entrance and then walk to the visitor center, which also has restrooms and a picnic area. It also offers educational activities, guided tours, excursions and birdwatching, workshops and courses, as well as various specific events. https://www.lipu.it/oasi-riserve/riserva-naturale-santa-luce YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCumfLGyj3Zq6OSuRStRyB4Q Open Saturday and Sunday: 8:00 am - 11:00 am / 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm.

The Terme di Casciana, famous since the Middle Ages for the healing properties of their waters, offer an oasis of well-being where you can regenerate. The jewel in the crown is the spectacular outdoor thermal pool, 500 square meters of pure relaxation, with water that flows naturally at 36 degrees. Ideal for alleviating various ailments, the spa also boasts mud treatments and balneotherapy. After a long ride, there is nothing better to recharge your body and mind. Bicycles are prohibited inside, but there are places to leave them outside, if not in front, in the nearby Piazza Garibaldi.

the drive up to Castellino maritima is worth it, a new, very small town with a very helpful bike shop
