Bike trails at Elba Island



On the east coast of Elba, thanks to the sensibility and passion of local bikers, two important projects have developed into the birth of two bike parks.

The first one was born in Capoliveri: the Capoliveri bike park develops on Monte Calamita promontory and it’s made of 5 permanent tracks of different levels and lengths. Structured on more than 100 km of paths and amazing roads, each track is labeled by a color and marked on the territory by signposts with the name of the track and the direction to follow. The signals also point at the exact place where you are, easily found on the bike park map.

Also on the east coast of Elba, on the high grounds of the small town called Riesi there is Elba Gravity Bike park, with narrower and more challenging tracks for more extreme bikers who want to do mountain biking. Made of 6 tracks of different levels that develop for a total route of 20 km. Perfect place to have fun and try cross country and freeride.

We remind bikers who want to have a guided tour of Elba bike parks that they can book their own tour and they can also rent, if needed, professional mountain bikes completely equipped for any needs.

Recommendations for bikers

  • Always wear proper clothing according to the season
  • Always wear a helmet
  • Get info on the difficulty level of the track you chose
  • Be honest on judging your training level before starting the track you chose
  • Always let someone else know what tracks you’ve planned to do
  • Always be very careful; slow down when riding downhill and on bends. Tracks are also trekking tracks, so be careful to any trekkers on your way
  • Take with you the right amount of water and supplements
  • A cell phone might be useful if you’re in need
  • Check your bike before leaving and take with you tools to fix your bike in case of need
  • Respect nature: don’t throw garbage on the roads or tracks
  • Avoid ridining paths or roads not on the map and don’t get inside ruins
