Welcome to one of Italy’s most beautiful villages! Nicknamed "the city of a hundred horizons" by famous Italian poet and Nobel Prize winner Giosué Carducci, Asolo is a pearl in the Veneto region. Located on gentle slopes between the Treviso plain and the Pre-Alps, this village is a veritable open-air museum, a peaceful place of the past where every building, street, and porch conveys a sense of beauty and is perfectly integrated with the surrounding landscape. Meet your Trek Travel host at the luxurious hotel Villa Cipriani located in the heart of the medieval village of Asolo. Settle in and make yourself at home as your host gives you an overview of the days ahead. After making sure you are fitted comfortably to your Trek bike, they'll share some safety tips before you set off on your first scenic loop ride in this enchanting territory, featuring the local's favourite climb called Mostaccin. If you want to extend the ride, the avid option will take you to Possagno to pay homage to an authentic Neoclassic treasure. The majestic Temple of Canova rises high above the town, sitting at the feet of Monte Grappa. Once back at the hotel, take some time to relax, perhaps with a swim in the pool. Tonight, choose to dine in the elegant setting of Villa Cipriani or enjoy dinner at one of our recommended restaurants in Asolo.

Hotel Villa Cipriani

This morning savor your first exquisite breakfast at Villa Cipriani and get ready for a fantastic tour through the rolling hills of Prosecco, where the cultivation of vines is almost a religion. The breathtaking panorama of the snow-covered Alps will provide a stunning backdrop to today's ride. After crossing the Piave River, you will notice how the Prosecco vineyards dominate on the surrounding steep hillsides. The riding terrain becomes hilly, with short but steep ascents, yet the panoramas will make all your efforts worthwhile. If you feel like adding some elevation gain, we recommend taking the avid option through the village of Rolle, a picturesque spot that is not to be missed. Your experience in the Prosecco hills will not be complete until you sip a glass of this beloved sparkling wine while enjoying spectacular views of the vine-covered hills! The opportunity is offered by the many wineries scattered through the hills in Valdobbiadene, as you pass by on your ride. For lunch and dinner today, make good use of our hand-selected recommendations available in your Ride with GPS app as you explore this incredible region.

Take a stroll through its vibrant city center before crossing the bridge, called the “Ponte Vecchio”, the best-known monument in town. Originally designed by the visionary designer Andrea Palladio in 1569, this bridge is made entirely of wood and is considered an engineering masterpiece hard to replicate even with today’s technology. If you want to mingle with the locals, pay a visit to the most ancient distillery called Nardini and order a round of mezzo e mezzo , a mixed drink which is the house specialty. If time allows, the avid option will take you to the medieval walled town of Marostica, characterized by an imposing castle and a town square made of a gigantic chessboard where locals perform a human chess game. A late check-out time (at 12:00 PM noon) will allow you to be back at the hotel on time to take a shower before you bid your farewells. Your Trek Travel host will meet you at the hotel at 12:30 PM to take your bike and say arrivederci before you leave for Venice or other destinations.

Arriving

We suggest that you arrive at least one day prior to the trip start, 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, Marco Polo Airport (VCE) and rent a car for the duration of the trip. Most major rental car companies are available at VCE. Advance booking is recommended. If you are not renting a car, you can take a taxi at the airport (taxis are readily available at the arrival area). You can also book a private transfer ahead of time. Our Trip Consultant can provide you with our recommended local contact information. The trip from Venice Marco Polo Airport to Asolo takes from 60 to 90 minutes depending on traffic and costs about €150.

If you are going to spend some time in Venice before the trip starts, there are many options to get into central Venice from the airport, including bus, land taxi, or the famous water taxi. Land taxis outside the arrivals terminal are plentiful. Private water taxis cost approximately 80-120 euros. For bus service, the ATVO direct coach (www.atvo.it) takes you directly to Piazzale Roma, the end of the road in historic Venice and the entrance to the Grand Canal, in 20 minutes for six euros.

The best way to get to Asolo from central Venice is by train, from Venice S. Lucia train station to Castelfranco Veneto. There are frequent direct trains. The trip takes approximately 1 hour and costs about five euros. From the train station of Castelfranco Veneto you need to take a taxi to the hotel Villa Cipriani. The trip takes 30 minutes and costs about €50. Our trip Consultant can provide you with our recommended local contact information. Alternatively, you may take a taxi upon your arrival at the train station in Castelfranco.

Your Trek Travel host will meet you at the hotel Villa Cipriani (Via Canova, 298, 31011 Asolo TV, Italy) at 11:00 AM on the first day of the trip. Depending on the number of guests booked for your departure date, it is possible we will ask you to shift your meeting time by approximately 30 minutes. Please have your riding gear readily accessible to avoid having to unpack your luggage. After a trip overview, you may change into your cycling gear where you will then be fitted to your Trek bike ensuring you will be comfortable for the week. Following a safety talk and a review of the details of the route, saddle up to begin the day's ride through the roads of Veneto.

If you will be late for meeting or are going to miss it altogether, please inform your Trek Travel host. You will receive an email a week before the trip starts with their name and contact details. If you cannot reach them, please call our hotel, Hotel Villa Cipriani (+39 0423 523411), and leave a message with your expected arrival time and contact details. A taxi to the hotel would cost approximately €100.

Our Trip Consultant can provide you with our recommended local contact information. The trip to the airport takes from 60 to 90 minutes depending on traffic. Please allow adequate connection time for any ongoing travel to accommodate possible traffic delays.

Before and After Your Trip

before

Before & After: Venice, Italy

Whether you’ve never been to Venice or have been there 20 times, there’s always something new to discover. Indeed, even the most seasoned visitors get lost in the city’s labyrinthine network of islands, bridges, pedestrian alleys, and canals. And therein lies the beauty of the destination: afternoons spent wandering from palace to piazza, exploring the small art museums, shopping the stalls that line the streets, and encountering a fresh side of Venice, a fascinating amalgamation of influences—Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman, and Italian—every time you round a corner. The UNESCO World Heritage site comprises the city of Venice and its lagoon situated in the Veneto Region of northeast Italy. Founded in the fifth century and spread over 118 small islands, Venice became a major maritime power in the 10th century. The whole city is an extraordinary architectural masterpiece in which even the smallest building contains works by some of the world’s greatest artists. We recommend the following accommodations for your pre and post-trip hotel:
