Home of InGamba. And added to the route for mechanical reason. Lau's Diverge needed some love. And for bike love, you go to Lecchi

Nestled among vineyards and hills, the fortified village of Ama dates back to the Middle Ages and was an important outpost defending the Republic of Florence during the wars with Siena. Traces of the original castle remain in the ancient stone houses and structures incorporated into the current village, which retains the authentic charm of the small medieval settlements of Chianti.
Today, Ama is famous for its wines and for the "Castello di Ama per l'Arte Contemporanea" project, launched in the 1990s: an itinerary that integrates site-specific installations by major international artists (including Anish Kapoor, Daniel Buren, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and Michelangelo Pistoletto) in the historic buildings, cellars, and open spaces of the village.
A stop that combines history, landscape, contemporary art, and winemaking tradition, making Ama a unique place in the heart of Chianti.

Radda in Chianti

Highlight • Settlement

A walk through the narrow, winding streets and numerous ornate vaulted passages transports you back to bygone medieval times, as if Radda were still the capital of the “Lega del Chianti”.

June 2, 2025,🇮🇹 Von Poggorino zu Castello Ama über Lecci nach Radda in Chianti
Between Ama and Lecci, there's a short stretch of about 230 meters that's almost impassable. Very rocky and narrow. From the road, it leads to a dead end, and that's where the poor trail begins. It takes a bit of courage. Tracking or mountain biking is required!
