Trasimeno Bike Path, Itinerary and Stages of the Circular Route

The bike path of the Trasimeno is a circular route that allows you to follow the beautiful Umbria basin, passing by points of major interest that can be visited along its shores while enjoying a breathtaking panorama.

The Trasimeno bike path measures a total of 57.2 kilometers with some ups and downs and a surface that is made up of asphalt (42%) and unpaved (58%).

It is a bike path of medium difficulty that can be tackled both on mountain bikes and - perhaps for those less trained - on electric bikes, preferably with shock absorbers.

The paved routes can be ridden on any type of bicycle.

The landscape you traverse while cycling the Trasimeno bike path changes continuously, moving from the shores of the lake to the eponymous park, leaving the coast and venturing inland.

One of the most popular routes of the Trasimeno bike path starts from the train station in Passignano sul Trasimeno, one of the most famous and beautiful villages located along the Umbria basin, and then heads - through ups and downs and stretches of paved and unpaved paths - towards Torricella, San Feliciano, Sant'Arcangelo, Mirabella, and reaches Castiglione del Lago, another of the most well-known and characteristic towns you can visit along the lake.

The bike path then continues towards the village of Borghetto and proceeds in the direction of Tuoro sul Trasimeno - a beautiful town with medieval origins - until arriving back at the starting point in Passignano.

The itinerary can naturally be completed in one day (perhaps for more experienced cyclists), or divided into two or more stages, stopping at the most important centers for a break to refresh, rest, and relax.

To reach the Trasimeno bike path, you can use either a car or the train.

In the first case, it is advisable to take the A1 highway and exit at Valdichiana if coming from the north, or at Fabro or Chiusi-Chianciano Terme if coming from the south.

By train, the reference stations are those of Castiglione del Lago, Chiusi-Chianciano Terme, or Terontola for those coming from Milan, Rome, or Florence, and Magione, Passignano sul Trasimeno, or Tuoro sul Trasimeno for those coming from Ancona or Foligno.
