For those who love outdoor activities, Taormina boasts several bicycle touring routes of different lengths and intensities, to explore the area from different perspectives. Moderately experienced cyclists can try medium-length routes on mixed surfaces that alternate clay and asphalt from Taormina to Catania, Aci Castello, Aci Reale, or Giardini Naxos.
The routes are full of panoramic views where you can enjoy the beauty of the landscape, the villages, and stretches with access to the sea for a regenerating swim in crystal-clear waters. For the truly sporty ones, the Taormina area has different trails among nature reserves, mountainous areas, and countryside to ride mountain bikes, such as the one that connects Taormina to Santa Tecla, Giarre, or Mazzarò.
Finally, for those who simply want to enjoy a relaxing stroll through the alleys of Taormina, a ride on a classic or pedal-assisted bicycle is one of the best ways to visit the town, the sea breeze caress you and enveloping you in the smells of typical food from the many bars, ice cream parlors, and pastry shops in the historic center where you can make a refreshing stop.
Palazzo Vecchio Taormina will be happy to arrange your individual, group, or guided bike paths based on your experience level.
