Km
indicates the total length of the route from the starting to the arrival point.
Duration
indicates the time needed to complete the route considered an average (in motion) of about 10 km per hour for the mtb routes and 20 km per hour for the road bicycle routes, as well as a tolerance depending on the type of the path.
Elevation gain uphill
this is not the difference between the highest and lowest points reached during the journey, but the elevation gain uphill.
This is the sum of all altitude differences from the point of departure to the point of arrival. In other words, the greater the elevation gain uphill in height and the greater the number of climbs that must be faced, then the path will be harder.
Difficulty
Difficulty is always a very subjective parameter. We tried to give an assessment that considers a level of intermediate training and a good propensity to ride on dirt roads or long climbs sometimes challenging.
% Asfalto / Gravel

From Iano we take the path that will lead us to explore the hills south of Castelfalfi. Passing from the locality "Costia" we proceed on the ridges of the sweet clay hills immersed in a boundless landscape that changes color with the changing of the seasons: from the intense green of spring to golden yellow of summer until the gray of clay fields in winter.
Then we go down to the stream "Roglio" and then we climb up the opposite side and reach Castelfalfi where it is worth taking a short stop to visit this ancient medieval village.
We are now just over halfway but we still have one last effort. Then, after taking a breath, we take the asphalt road towards San Vivaldo and after about 2 km we turn right and go down until we reach the valley.
From here, to return to Iano, we must first tackle the steep and somewhat insidious climb up to "Vignale" where we can admire the remains of a small group of houses (Castello di Vignale) among which stands the bell tower of an old church, then, continuing to climb we get to the paved road that will take us back to the starting point.
