The Eroica was launched in 1997 in Gaiole in Chianti by Giancarlo Brocci, a man in love with the values of cycling of the past, these unique landscapes and a sustainable way of life.

Thanks to Terra Eroica, this event has also given us a permanent course giving you the chance to ride your own adventure at any time of the year.

As a cycle tourist, you will cover 209 km in the countryside around Siena, passing through Chianti, Crete Senesi and the Val d’Orcia.

A timeless journey exploring the essence of the Tuscan countryside and culture, featuring fine wine, bustling markets and beautiful ancient churches. Because there is nothing more heroic than enjoying every step of the journey before arriving at the destination.
