Since 2013 this extremely vast territory dedicated to cycling has been the centre of Italian mountain biking, thanks not only to its geographical position but also to its reputation as one of the most famous single bike trails worldwide. Here the climate is mild, with very a very low rainfall and over 200 days of sun a year. These particular features make almost the entire area traversable by bike over terrains that are practically perfect and always well maintained.
The territory is divided into three distinct trail areas: Bandite di Scarlino, Massa Marittima and Sentieri Castiglionesi. The variety of different trails connotes the Trail Center: from the easy cross country, to the more difficult enduro of the famous “Rock oh” trails, passing by the flow of the “Quercia Numerata” (numbered oak tree). Some downhillers can have fun on some of the free-ride tracks along the “cesse tagliafuoco” (firebreaks) that break up the landscape. The context in which the bikers of all levels find themselves is surrounded by nature: single trails immersed in the thick Mediterranean scrub, from the hilltops 400/500 metres above sea level, down to the beaches that would otherwise be inaccessible. Even the road lovers can satisfy their passion: well-surfaced roadways with very little traffic where they can ride up gentle slopes and along flat plains amidst the medieval hamlets of the hinterland and over a rocky promontory just a few metres from the sea.

The bush, a characteristic vegetation of these steep coasts on the sea - has an undergrowth that creates tunnels, single tracks and trails of various difficulties. The green that grows from below closes luxuriantly in the tunnel of chestnut leaves, beech, oaks and cork oaks, giving the passage scents of black currant, wild cyclamen and other various essences. The wood where, paying attention, there are slow and silent turtles.
This is a territory rich in culture and history: in Pian D'Alma (area of the Bike Park near Punta Ala) there are some Etruscan tombs, the Scarlino fortress and its archaeological park tell of a distant past (from the Greek vestiges to the late Middle Ages) and the ancient village of Castiglione della Pescaia which houses an imposing medieval castle. A territory crossed by the "wine roads" where various wine-vine products can be tasted in numerous variations of eno-gastronomic theme (Morellino di Scansano, Monteregio di Massa Marittima, Montecucco, Bianco di Pitigliano are just some of the most famous DOCs).
