Three cyclist on the Passo Sella in the Dolomites
This was a fantastic first Trek Travel experience for me. The mountain scenery was awe inspiring, quite achingly beautiful, and the climbs were a strong challenge for my capabilities. I feel refreshed and accomplished. I cannot thank Miqui and Pol enough. They were fantastically supportive, kind and generous with their comments and time. I felt safe and secure in their capable hands and I will absolutely book another Trek Travel trip again.

Welcome to the beginning of your Discover Dolomites adventure! Your Trek Travel guides will meet you at the Belluno Train Station at 11:00 AM and together you will take a one-hour shuttle ride to your trip hotel in Alleghe, your picturesque home for the duration of the trip. After a short round of introductions, your guides will fit you to your Trek bike and then present you with a casual buffet-style lunch at the hotel before hitting the road! The ride today features the legendary Passo Falzarego, a great introduction to the Dolomites and a famous climb in the Giro d'Italia. Enjoy the ascent as you tackle the hairpin turns, and take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding Dolomite peaks. At the top, you'll turn around and head back to the hotel spending the rest of the afternoon settling into your new home for the week. Relax or take a short walk around the alpine lake as you enjoy the gorgeous views of the surrounding peaks, including the imposing Monte Civetta towering over Alleghe. We'll dine as a group at the restaurant at our hotel with stunning views of the lake.

Approximately 30 mi | 48 km and 4,300 ft | 1,310 m

Make sure you enjoy a hearty breakfast today, because we are in for a big day in the saddle over the most celebrated four passes that comprise the Sellaronda tour. This is one of the most memorable rides of your trip as you circumnavigate the Sella Massif and its dramatic, sheer cliffs. It'll be demanding but also rewarding with epic views and climbs on tap. We'll follow the Torrente Cordevole north out of Alleghe and start gently climbing, for a good six mile warmup. Just before the Arabba ski resort, we'll start the counterclockwise loop, ascending to the top of Passo Campolongo. A quick descent to Corvara and then back up brings us to Passo Gardena. Next up, the Passo Sella, is the highest summit in the ride today. Don't worry - whenever you need lunch, your guides will be ready with your packed sandwich for the day and a van full of ride snacks. Last but not least, climb Passo Pordoi for another monumental ascent. Enjoy the absolutely breathtaking views of this entire ride and the descent back to Alleghe. What a day!

Get ready for a day of fantastic vistas along with challenging cycling! You'll begin the ride with a couple of miles of rollers to prepare your legs before tackling the famed Passo Giau! With its 6.2 mile (10 kilometer) ascent, set against stunning scenery, this pass is one of the epic climbs in the Dolomites stages of the Giro d’Italia, made famous by the achievements of some of the strongest climbers of all time. Celebrate the climb with a packed sandwich lunch on the summit at 7,336 feet (2,236 meters), surrounded by magnificent towering peaks. Then saddle up and enjoy the sweeping descent to Pocol before hitting the second climb of the day, Passo Falzarego. If you are ready for an extra challenge, the avid option will extend the loop to Valparola, a strikingly beautiful pass rising up to 7,113 feet (2,168 metres) from dense woodland into a rocky landscape framed by giant mountains. From here, you'll enjoy a glorious descent into the Badia valley and finally climb the mellow and picturesque Passo Campolongo before completing the loop ride. Dinner will be on your own tonight, providing a great opportunity to explore the lakeside town of Alleghe and choose your favorite restaurant. Craving pasta or pizza?

Today's ride takes you south out of Alleghe, keeping the proud Monte Civetta on your left. Our cycling mission: completing a loop ride around the highest mountain of the area, La Marmolada, standing tall at 10,968 feet (3,343 meters). The first climb of your day is Passo San Pellegrino, a stunner dressed in pine trees from the bottom all the way to the rugged rocky top. You will descend to the mountain town of Moena, where you are welcome to stop for a very well-deserved lunch of your choice before starting to climb again. Once back in the saddle, you'll start with a sustained gentle climb at first, before the grades reach double digits for the last few miles. The next pass you'll reach is Passo Fedaia, with the beautiful Fedaia lake at the top, at the foot of the Marmolada glacier. There might not be a mountaintop café to welcome you but your guides will be there cheering you on and ready to offer you something refreshing or anything else you might need from the bountiful snack table and their cooler full of drinks. Then, it's back down the mountain and off to your hotel for a relaxing afternoon. Dinner tonight is to be shared together as a team, at the beautiful hotel restaurant, in celebration of a great week of riding and memories.

Our Dolomites bike tour is best suited for our Type 4 Riders. Our Trek Travel guides can also accommodate Type 3 Riders, who seek less mileage or fewer uphills, with a boost in the van. Type 4+ Riders will enjoy the extra mileage the avid route options offer.
NON-RIDING ACTIVITIES:
This destination is best suited to guests who want to cycle every day. Because of the terrain and/or remoteness of the hotel and riding routes, there are few, if any, non-riding options available. If a non-rider wants to accompany a rider guest on this trip, they would need to spend many hours in the van and/or at the hotels on the trip. Due to this, we strongly discourage non-riders from this destination. As an alternative, call a Trek Travel Trip Consultant at 866-464-8735 for trip suggestions where more non-rider activities are available, such as:
  • Provence
  • Tuscany
  • Prague to Vienna

Arriving

We suggest that you arrive at least one day prior to the start of your Discover Dolomites bike tour, which will enable you to adjust to the time zone and minimize the risk of missing the trip start due to flight-related delays. We recommend that you fly into Venice's Marco Polo Airport (VCE) or Milan’s Malpensa Airport (MXP) and then take a train to Belluno. If you arrive in Milan, we recommend you transfer to Belluno the night before in order to make the meeting time of 11:00 AM on the first day of the trip. Italian train schedules can be found on www.TrenItalia.com.

Your Trek Travel guides will meet you at the Belluno Train Station (Stazione di Belluno 32100) at 11:00 AM on the first day of your Dolomites bike tour. If you arrive in Venice, there are frequent trains to Belluno. If you arrive in Milan, we recommend you transfer to Belluno the night before in order to make the meeting time on the first day of the trip. You will shuttle approximately one hour to the mountain town of Alleghe and your hotel Sporthotel Europa, your home for the week. Here you will be welcomed by a casual buffet-style lunch while your guides fit and familiarize you with your Trek bike for the week. Please have your first day's cycling clothes easily accessible, separate from your luggage! After a brief orientation and a safety talk, saddle up to begin the day's ride in the cycling heart of the Dolomites.

If you will be late for the pick-up or are going to miss it altogether, please inform your guides. You will receive an email a week before the trip start with their names and contact details. If you cannot reach them, please call our first hotel, Sporthotel Europa (+39 0437 523 362), and leave a message with your expected arrival time and contact details.

Planning For Your Trip

Packing and Weather

Daytime temperatures can reach 80 degrees Fahrenheit (27 degrees Celsius) and can increase upwards from there in the low-lying valleys. Temperatures and conditions can change quickly and evenings tend to be cool and fresh. Mountain weather conditions can change dramatically from one hour to the next. For example, in just a few minutes a thunder storm can roll in when the sky was perfectly clear, and in just a few hours the temperatures can drop from extremely hot temperatures to temperatures that are below freezing. Therefore, we recommend bringing a variety of cycling gear, from cold weather, to wet weather, and warm weather. Please, be prepared by bringing layers for cool descents and rain gear for possible rain showers. Layers are key when riding in the mountains! Packing List

Before and After Your Trip

before

Before: Belluno, Italy

Belluno, the capital of Alto Adige, is a beautiful city with a rich history. Piazza Duomo features a 16th-century cathedral and a medieval baptistry as well as a 12th-century tower that remains from the original castle. There are Renaissance-style palazzos and plenty of cafés for people watching around the Piazza dei Martiri. The town also features a museum with a collection of archaeological artifacts and 16th- and 17th-century paintings by local artists. We recommend the following accommodations for your pre-trip hotel:

after

After: Venice, Italy

A timeless city, of ancient origins and traditions that is known to enchant its visitors with its sublime beauty, should not be missing from your travel list.

Built on more than 100 small islands and surrounded by the vast Venetian Lagoon, Venice has no roads, but a network of canals flowing through it, serviced by small gondolas and water taxis. The most famous canal, the Grand Canal, is in the heart of the city and it's lined with picture-perfect Renaissance and Gothic palaces that will transport you to another era.

There is a reason that Venice was nicknamed "La Serenissima", meaning "the most serene one". It's unique, dreamy, romantic, dramatic, and positively intoxicating for anyone with a spirit of discovery and adventure. If you wish to spend a few days in Venice, we recommend the following accommodations for your post-trip hotel:
