The week is built around five guided gravel rides through the Crete Senesi, the stretch of rolling hills, vineyards and olive groves between Siena and the Val d'Orcia. Routes run 37–56 miles a day with 3,900–4,900 feet of climbing, mixing punchy climbs with winding descents and wide views over the Tuscan countryside. Professional local guides lead the way, including former pro rider Alberto Elli, and daily ride nutrition is provided.

Off the bike, the programme leans into what Tuscany does well. There's a traditional Tuscan cooking class, tastings of local wine and olive oil, and a hands-on lavender workshop. Espresso stops are built into the riding days, and dinners happen together at the agriturismo.

Il Molinello is a family-run farm with roots going back to the 14th century, welcoming guests for more than 30 years. It has gardens and a swimming pool surrounded by olive groves, which is where most afternoons end up after a day of climbing.

What separates this from a generic cycling holiday is the guiding and the support: local guides who know these roads, secure bike storage, on-site mechanical support, and transfers from Florence airport included. A welcome bag comes from GRVL CAMP and Bike It! Tours.

The camp follows a first edition in Lake Como and moves to Tuscany for October 2027. Dates are 15–21 October 2027, seven days and six nights.
