Discover breathtaking trails on Elba, with routes for every skill level, stretching from the sea to the mountains
From Hotel Villa Rodriguez, located directly on Naregno Beach, it’s easy to reach the Calamita promontory area, a past venue of international mountain biking competitions, including a World Cup event in 1994.
For those who want to explore Elba by mountain bike and take in views only accessible by trail, Monte Calamita offers well-marked paths in varying levels of difficulty. These routes provide an unparalleled perspective: flat, beaten trails or steeper, more adventurous options. Some trails follow the coastline, allowing access to secluded coves, while others pass through the remains of an old cliffside mine, leading up through Mediterranean scrub and forest to the summit of Monte Calamita. The sea and island views from these trails are absolutely stunning.
For mountain bike enthusiasts, Monte Calamita, like many other areas of Elba Island, offers a unique environment where they can enjoy their favorite sport in close contact with nature.
Hotel Villa Rodriguez provides support in organizing vacations focused on exploring the island on two wheels. Guided excursions are available, with an expert guide for both casual riders—who also have the option to rent a mountain bike on-site—and experienced, well-trained bikers.
The hotel features a dedicated area with a covered rack equipped for cleaning and performing routine maintenance on mountain bikes. Additionally, there is a secure storage room where mountain bikes can be safely kept, and where e-bikes can also be recharged.
For those accompanying riders who prefer a peaceful and relaxing vacation over physical activity, the beach and amenities offered by Hotel Villa Rodriguez provide all the comforts needed to make their stay calm and relaxing.
