Massa Marittima is a paradise for mountainbiking. Everything started with a trail here or there, but soon more and much longer ones have been created. Nowadays there are thousand of passionate bikers who enjoy riding our zone; thanks to the mild climate during the whole year!
Any biker will be satisfied with the Massa Marittima trail area: there are smooth flow-trails as well as rough enduro tracks. The best trails can be discovered on a tour with a local mountainbike guide. They know where the best trails are and know the area like the back of their hand. Be careful: the itineraries can be insidious even for cracks, gps documents could be outdated and mobile connection is not given everywhere. Knowing the insiders you might even see aeration holes of the mining age, the wonderful panorama on our region and the best trails of course!
The tracks have been built in countless hours by volunteers and bikecracks. Many of them are members of “The Trail Brothers” which was created years ago by a few passionate bikers of Massa Marittima and bikefreaks who love this region. Moreover trailbuilding weeks are organised to bunch forces to create new trails or to maintain the old ones in order to have everything ready for the riding season.
In April 2024, the Ciclovia delle 3M was inaugurated, a 90 km ring-shaped cycle path connecting the three municipalities of the Metalliferous Hills: Massa Marittima, Monterotondo Marittimo, and Montieri. The route is primarily designed to be traveled clockwise, but it can also be used in both directions, with varying levels of difficulty.
It is an important connection not only between the three municipalities but also between the respective hiking areas (Trail Area) of the region, utilizing secondary, rural, and forest roads, paths, and newly discovered routes from old maps. The cycle path features 14 rest areas and 10 service columns equipped with a basic toolkit and pump, two of which, located in Malfatto and Troscione, also offer charging stations for e-bikes.
The Ciclovia delle 3M is currently featured on Instagram and the sector platform Komoot.
