Dear All
I'm the organizer of ELBAMAN,really sorry not to be able to write in French, I hope all of you can not be upset...
Reading your topic I understand that you have problem in reaching the island.
The easy way is by car and reaching Piombino where you can take a Ferry to Elba (50mins).
There are 2 companies that do the ferry : MOBY Lines and TOREMAR.
We are working for an agreement with MOBY fot athletes.
Other occasion is plane. There is a little airport on the island, but it works mostly in the period July-August for tourist from Europe.
The other closest one is PISA airport, about 100km far from Piombino with highway connection.
A good chance could be to flight to Pisa and take a rent Car or train to Piombino.
Many athletes did the same last year renting a car.
In order to get a good tarif for renting car we would like to collect many interested athelte and present a list to different renting office in Pisa.
Please send us your interest to our email.
On our websiter
