Overview

Enjoy a cycling holiday without compromises in the Dolomites: you can say you have tackled the most iconic and famous climbs in the Dolomites. Embark on the ultimate Dolomites cycling adventure meticulously crafted by cycling enthusiasts for those seeking an uncompromising cycling vacation. Our challenge category tour prioritizes the riding experience over logistics, delivering the Dolomites just the way we, as avid cyclists, would want to experience them. The first stage has been designed to make it clear from the beginning the going of following, intense, days. The going is getting tough within the second stage: it's a short stage with two climbs, we take on the Falzarego pass as a starter an then the menù offers a real beast: Passo Giau. Ready, Steady, off we go for a second time over Passo Falzarego. Today we have the famous Sellaronda classic loop. The circular route, amidst fascinating natural landscapes, leads through some of the most attractive roads and well-known Dolomite passes and you know what's best of it: it's a 64k ride with no flat: you go up, or you go down. Usually at Grand Tour races after a short stage there's a long one and here we go with first 100k stage. Here we are at the last stage, but don't think the climbing fest is over. As keen cyclists we can never get enough of scenic roads and endless climbs. As soon as we leave hotel we go up the 11.7km uphill to Passo Sella from the south road.
