DOLOMITES luxury bike tour

Itinerary

Day 1: Welcome to the Dolomites / Warmup Spin and Welcome Dinner
We will meet you at 10:30 am at our Venice airport hotel and transfer you to the Dolomites and the four-star luxury Hotel Kolfuschgerhof. Following your arrival and check-in for the next five-six nights, we will help you assemble your own bike or adjust your rental bike. Afterwards, we’ll enjoy a short spin before our “Welcome Meeting and Dinner” at the hotel.

Day 2: Passo di Erbe Loop
Begin your day with the hotel’s amazing breakfast spread and a cappuccino before beginning your day with a long descent through the Val Badia. Following your warm-up, you will be ready to ride the Passo di Erbe where you will be rewarded with the spectacular views at the summit of the surrounding peaks. Afterwards, reward yourself with lunch at the “refugio” before riding back to the hotel or choose the van transfer. This afternoon, relax in the Kolfuschgerhof’s spa and outdoor pool while soaking up the jaw-dropping views. This evening, we’ll fuel up for tomorrow with a hearty dinner at the hotel

Day 3: Passo di Valparola and Passo di Falzarego
Today’s schedule features two of our favorite climbs in the region due to their natural beauty - the Passo di Valparola and the Passo di Falzarego! The views at the summits are breathtaking and the “refugio” here has the most delicious apple strudel! Choose to ride directly back to the hotel or take the option to descend to Arabba and ride the south ascent of the Passo di Campolongo before the final climb up to the hotel. This afternoon, treat yourself to a massage in the hotel spa before another memorable dinner this evening!

Day 4: Sella Ronda Loop (Campolongo, Pordoi, Sella, and Gardena climbs)
Your ride today is one you will never forget as you get to ride what many consider the world’s most beautiful loop ride - the Sella Ronda! You will ride as much or as little as you like over the four climbs of the Passo di Camplongo, Passo di Pordoi, Passo di Sella, and the Passo di Gardena! This is an epic dream ride and a true bucket list adventure that you will never forget! This evening, we’ll reward your day with a festive group dinner of pasta, homemade salads, wine, and tiramisu!

Day 5 - Passo Giau Loop
One of the Giro’s most famous ascents is in store for today as we tackle the challenging Passo Giau! After savoring your time at the summit, descend into the idyllic village of Cortina d’Ampezzo where we’ll enjoy lunch. Afterwards, choose to ride back to the hotel in the sag van or challenge yourself on the last two climbs of the trip - the Passo di Valparola and the Passo di Falzarego from the south side. This evening, we’ll celebrate your week in the incredible Dolomites during our “Farewell Dinner!”

Relax with breakfast before transferring to Venice’s Marco Polo International Airport. Estimated arrival time at the airport is 1 pm. Please do not book your returning flight before 4 pm. If you need to arrive sooner for personal reasons, please contact us to see if arrangements can be made.
