MAGIC ITALY’S CENTRE – ERMES’ ROUTES

Magic Italy’s Centre, developed within the Next Apennine program, sees the Municipality of Teramo as the leader, guiding a network of 26 municipalities, and the realization of the project is entrusted to the ECOTOURING SCARL consortium.

890 km to experience the heart of the Apennines by e-bike

1Magic Italy’s Centre – Ermes’ routes, born from the Next Apennine program, presents 29 e-bike tourism routes, in the territory of 26 municipalities between Abruzzo, Lazio, and Marche, which connect villages, natural parks, and landscapes of extraordinary beauty in the heart of central Italy.

The itineraries, inspired by the legend of Ermes, invite you to cycle slowly among nature, culture, and local traditions.

The routes develop along secondary roads with low traffic, dirt sections, and cycle-pedestrian paths, suitable for different levels of experience, and offer to cycle-tourists: dedicated signage, digital services, charging and rental points, and navigation tools. An integrated system that connects communities, tourist realities, and travelers, promoting sustainable and conscious tourism.
