Siena
Medieval city, home of the Palio and Strade Bianche finish.
Overview
Cycling in Siena
Siena sits at the heart of the Strade Bianche country, where white gravel roads roll across the Crete Senesi and through the vineyards of Chianti. Rides here are defined by short, punchy climbs, cypress-lined ridgelines and the option to mix tarmac with the famous sterrati that the pro peloton races each spring.
