The Magna Via Francigena connects Palermo to Agrigento through the rural heart of Sicily. An ancient path turned gravel route among feudal estates, wheat fields and inland villages, far from the tourist coast and travelled by very few.

On the Nebrodi Mountains, in Sicily, the island's most extensive forest is ignored beside the pull of Etna. Almost deserted pastoral roads among beech woods, horses and black pigs grazing freely: a slow mountain landscape where you meet almost no one.

In south-eastern Sicily, between Siracusa and Ragusa, secondary roads cut through a countryside of dry-stone walls all the way to the rock-cut necropolis of Pantalica. A rural Baroque landscape rideable even in winter, far from the crowded beaches and the mass tours.

In Sardinia, between Barbagia and Ogliastra, the inland roads trace the old narrow-gauge line of the Trenino Verde among limestone tablelands and shepherds' villages. This is Sardinia without the beaches: slow, uncrowded, where the mountains matter more than the coast.

In south-central Sardinia, Marmilla is a landscape of cultivated hills, domus de janas and nuraghi, crowned by the basalt plateau of the Giara di Gesturi with its wild little horses. An agricultural, ancient Sardinia, far from the coastal routes and almost tourist-free.

In the Sulcis-Iglesiente, at the far south-west of Sardinia, quiet roads link the abandoned mining heritage to the wetlands teeming with flamingos. A raw, little-known corner of the island, rideable for much of the year and almost always crowd-free.

In Trentino, the Val Rendena at the foot of the Adamello-Presanella and the Brenta Dolomites remains a snug Alpine valley: the Sarca cycle path runs along the valley floor among mountain farmsteads and waterfalls, far from the traffic of the better-known Lake Garda or Valsugana routes.

In the Cuneo province, the Valle Stura di Demonte is a valley on the way to France, often overlooked by cyclists: an ancient salt road among military forts and wild lavender, it stays quiet and off the main flows even in summer.

In the Marche, at the foot of the Sibillini Mountains, the foothill roads along the river Tenna link villages, sanctuaries and Lake San Ruffino in a mountain slowly reborn: an inland area still little visited, far from the flows of the Adriatic coast.
