Access points to the Trasimeno Cycle Path - Part 2

How to enter the Trasimeno Cycle Route: the access map

The Trasimeno Cycle Path, following the latest interventions in spring 2023, is nearly complete and represents one of the most scenic (and easy) routes for those who want to enjoy a day of cycling in Umbria.

The main access points are also marked with approach signage (photo below).

In this itinerary, we highlight the main access points available on the northern shore of the lake.

In the route published on Komoot, which you can find HERE, we’ve included additional points. All are highlighted as "highlights."

Rigutini-Bivio Piana

Road sign indicating access to the Trasimeno Cycle Path, near a junction on the SR142 in a rural area.

It is one of the few intermediate access points located between Castiglione del Lago and Borghetto, especially useful for those coming from the area of Piana, Ferretto, Petrignano del Lago, as it allows entry to the Trasimeno Cycle Path without covering many kilometers on the SR142. It is suitable for those who want to cycle the loop clockwise or counterclockwise. After leaving the SR142 to reach the cycle path, you need to travel a few hundred meters on a paved road.

Borghetto-Camping Badiaccia

Dirt path next to the entrance of a campsite, surrounded by trees and green vegetation, with prohibition signs.

A rather hidden access point, but very important for all those starting from Borghetto or coming from the Terontola-Cortona area and heading toward Castiglione del Lago. You need to leave the paved road toward Camping Badiaccia, then the dirt path begins right next to the campsite entrance.

Borghetto

Junction between a paved road and a dirt path, surrounded by trees and with brown tourist signage.

It is the other entrance located in the Borghetto area, on the opposite side of the village compared to Camping Badiaccia. It is useful for those coming from Terontola and Cortona and wanting to tackle the loop clockwise.

Lido di Tuoro

Junction on a dirt road, surrounded by trees, with informational signs and directions toward a bridge.

An important access point located in the Lido di Tuoro (Tuoro Beach) area, intended for those coming from Tuoro and surrounding areas. It is valid for those who want to tackle the loop clockwise or counterclockwise.

Passignano Ovest-recycling center

Level crossing with road signs, train crossing warning, and directions to the recycling center along a dirt road.

Access point located between Tuoro and Passignano, accessible by following the signs for the recycling center.

Coop Passignano

Narrow street between houses with a cyclist warning sign and a railway underpass at the end, surrounded by vegetation.

A rather hidden access point, located in front of the Coop in Passignano. It is important because it is the closest to the station.

Passignano Pidocchietto-Lake Bike

Wooden boardwalk along the lake, with fences, trees, and structures in the background, located near the Trasimeno lakeshore.

This is the access point closest to the center of Passignano, making it the most useful for those starting here and wanting to cycle the loop counterclockwise. The entrance is located in front of the Lake Bike shop, to the right of the playground, along the lake.

Passignano Est

Cyclist riding on a road near a glass recycling container, surrounded by vegetation and hills in the background.

Re-entry point onto the cycle path for those riding clockwise, located just outside Passignano, heading toward Magione. The entrance is just before the level crossing.

Torricella

Junction on a paved road with access to a campsite and a level crossing, immersed in a hilly green area.

An important entry point for those coming from Magione and Montecolognola and wanting to cycle the path counterclockwise (towards Passignano). It is located near the level crossing.

Albaia-Ex Lido Santino

Dirt road with red and white barriers, no vehicle access sign, and a bicycle parked next to it.

Between Torricella and Monte del Lago, the cycle path runs for several kilometers along a paved road, allowing access at various points. However, this access point is noteworthy as it allows parking and has the Albaia beach bar as a refreshment point.

San Feliciano-Giramondo-Zocco Beach

Paved road next to a dirt path, with lush trees and vegetation on one side and road signs.

This is the first entry point to the cycle path for those starting from San Feliciano and cycling the loop counterclockwise. From here, the route follows the road for a few kilometers.
