Join us on this fairytale ride, a stone’s throw from the sky! An ancient coral reef turned mountain, the Dolomites provide a breathtaking backdrop to our spectacular cycling tour where we alternate fatigue and excitement. From the cosmopolitan city of Bolzano, the western gateway to the Dolomites, we ride through the Isarco Valley to Val Pusteria, entering an ancient world of strong identities, culture, and traditions. As we continue through forests of fir trees and crystal-clear alpine lakes, we reach Cortina—known as the pearl of the Dolomites—where a well-deserved rest awaits. Here, we stroll through the charming old town and relax in its surrounding green parks, or join a scenic hike through the Cinque Torri, a striking cluster of stone towers rising dramatically from alpine meadows, offering panoramic views and a glimpse into World War I history with its open-air museum and bunkers. The journey continues to Val di Fassa, nestled at the foot of the majestic Sella mountain group, before finally returning to our beloved Bolzano. Along the way, our cyclist souls are rewarded with epic climbs over some of Italy and Europe’s most renowned passes. We’re immersed in landscapes defined by moss-draped peaks and towering stone formations. As we cycle past rolling pastures and dip into picture-perfect mountain villages, the horizon reveals a breathtaking panorama—a seemingly endless sea of mountain ranges that stirs the heart and fuels the spirit.
