See for yourself why the Dolomites are known as one of the greatest cycling areas in the Alps. The mountains' incredible rocky peaks and sprawling meadows create beautiful scenery to challenge your biking skills. Make stops in small villages in the Tyrol region of Italy to get to know the local culture and try the delicious cuisine. During this incredible week you will climb passes Tre Croci (1,805m), Giau (2,230m), Gardena (2,137m), Sella (2,240m), Pordoi (2,242m), Falzarego (2,105m), Erbe (2,000m), Fedaia (2057m), and Campolongo (1875m).
The following is your itinerary:
Day 1: Arrive in Alta Badia Ski Resort Hotel in San Cassiano: Enjoy the stunning drive from the airport before you check in at the Alta Badia hotel, the accommodation for the whole trip. The hotel provides you with breakfast and dinner for the entire trip. Take in the views of the surrounding Dolomite peaks, and perhaps you can take a warm-up ride around the Val Badia valley. Overnight in hotel in San Cassiano
Day 2: Sella Group tour: Climb 4 passes around the gorgeous circular massif of the Sella Group in the heart of the Dolomites: Passo Campolongo, Passo Pordoi, Passo Sella and Passo Gardena. The Sella Group is a must for biking and mountain enthusiasts. Level: medium; Distance: 52 km; Uphill: 1800 m
Day 3: Col di Lana Massif and Sass de Stria Tour: Ride around the Col di Lana massif for views of the Livinallongo valley. This valley was the site of intense WWI battles between the Italian and Austro-Hungarian forces, and you can still see a huge crater caused by a bomb explosion. From the hotel, cycle up to the town of Corvara on the Passo Campolongo and then descend to the village Arabba. Finally, return to Alta Badia via the Passo Valparola. Overnight in San Cassiano. Level: medium; Distance: 51.6 km; Uphill: 1670 m.
Day 4: Passo Giau Tour: Tackle tough uphill sections to get to Passo Falzarego and Passo Giau, one of the most visited Dolomite passes, with 14% maximum inclination. The route is demanding, yet you reach incredible views of the Ampezzo Valley, the Croda Rossa mountain at almost 2,965 m, and the Averau mountain at 2,659 m. Overnight in San Cassiano. Level: difficult; Distance: 75.2 km; Uphill: 2860 m.
Day 5: Tre Cime Lavaredo Tour: A shuttle takes you to Cortina d’Ampezzo where you start the route to Tre Cime di Lavaredo, the famous trio of peaks. Then transfer back to Cortina where you can ride around the peaceful Lake Misurina or take a very challenging uphill ride to a stage of the famous Giro d’Italia cycling race. If you prefer to rest, enjoy a rest with some strolling and shopping in the center of town. Overnight in San Cassiano. Level: difficult; Distance 55 km; Uphill: 1750 m
Day 6: Marmolada Glacier tour: This challenging day takes you through passes with some tough inclinations, including Passo Fedaia at a mean 12%. This pass is well-known as a stage in the Giro d’Italia race. Cycle to the bottom to reach the Marmolada Glacier. The only glacier in the Dolomites gives it its nickname of "Queen of the Dolomites." Overnight in San Cassiano. Level: difficult; Distance: 85.0 km; Uphill: 2400 m
Day 7: Passo delle Erbe tour: Ride down to San Martino, ascend the Passo delle Erbe, and take in the incredible Putia massif and lush mountain meadows along the way. After some relaxing time at the alpine hut Ütia de Börz, cycle to the town of Chiusa to reach the Passo Gardena, a path of many hairpin turns that opens up to a remarkable view of the Saslong mountain. Overnight in San Cassiano; Level: difficult; Distance: 105 km; Uphill: 2800 m

A very good experience. The number of exposed sections were shorter (but with considerable difficulty) than what I had expected. Hiking along the steep path carved out in the mountain was the mainstay. But 5/5 to our guide Matteo who was an expert mountaineer (he helped a fellow climber cross over a difficult section when she got badly stuck). Overall a very memorable experience!

Best day ever, easy to find very reliable and friendly staff. Plus you get to see some really great scenery on your way to the steering point. First class canyoning and the guide Andrea needs a pay rise.

This was definitely the highlight of my trip to Lake Garda! Such an amazing experience with one other solo traveller and our guide Andrea who immediately put us at ease with his sense of humour and easy going nature. He also kept a watchful eye on our safety as we were both first timers on a via ferrata climb. The views were spectacular ...even better than I anticipated! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun yet challenging activity

Location was very nice, instructor was friendly and experienced. We had a lot of fun! Only thing that was a bit confusing was the pickup. We booked through OutdoorVisit but we're supposed to find the tour operator (MMove) at the crowded pickup point. They didn't seem to be able to find our reservation, but after 20 mins everything worked out. This meant that other people had to wait for us though.

Fantastic day out. The guys were great, made it a laugh and I 100% recommend. I’m afraid of heights and water and managed to do it, my adrenaline was pumping. Lots of jumps and abseils. It is a little scary but you feel great and really feel you achieved something afterwards. I think the reps were called David and Andreo they were great!
