Itinerary
Day 1 – Arrival in Bassano del Grappa
Welcome to Italy! After landing in Venice, we make our way to the charming town of Bassano del Grappa, nestled at the foot of the Dolomites.
We’ll settle into the Basso Club House and nearby hotel before getting our bikes fitted and ready for adventure.
Later, we’ll take a relaxing stroll through Bassano’s old town, cobbled streets, river views, and that unmistakable Italian charm.
The evening ends with our first local dinner, raising a glass to the week ahead.
Day 2 – From the Foothills to Lake Garda
After breakfast, we roll out on our first ride — 99 km of smooth tarmac and scenic climbs with 1,620 m of elevation gain.
We’ll pause by Lake Garda for a well-earned lunch, the shimmering water and mountains framing our plates.
Then it’s a short drive to Selva di Val Gardena, deep in the Dolomites, where we’ll check in and enjoy a cozy dinner surrounded by alpine peaks.
Day 3 – The Legendary Dolomites Loop
Today’s all about epic mountain passes.
Riders can choose between routes ranging from a scenic 50–60 km (+2,000 m) to a full 122 km (+3,744 m) marathon loop.
You’ll tackle icons like Passo Sella, Passo Pordoi, Campolongo, Valparola, and the infamous Mur dl Giat, a true taste of Giro d’Italia terrain and Maratona delle Dolomiti.
After an exhilarating day, we’ll regroup for dinner and share stories of the climbs conquered.
Day 4 – Over the Passes to San Vigilio
We roll again from Selva Val Gardena toward San Vigilio, passing through Corvara and La Villa.
Depending on your legs, choose between a 42 km (+1,000 m) scenic spin or a 67 km (+1,590 m) route with more passes and views.
After lunch, we check into our Sport Hotel, unwind with a gentle yoga session, and enjoy dinner at the local pizzeria, pure recovery bliss.
Day 5 – The Beauty of the Dolomites
Today’s ride is pure postcard perfection , 91 km (+1,952 m) from San Vigilio through Passo Furcia, Val Pusteria, and the famous Lago di Braies.
We’ll stop lakeside for lunch, surrounded by mirror-like turquoise water and pine forests.
The rest of the afternoon is for rest and reflection, tomorrow brings something truly special.
Day 6 – Conquer the Stelvio
After breakfast, we drive to Merano and begin the day’s challenge: the legendary Passo Stelvio.
It’s a climb that every cyclist dreams of — 95 km with 2,520 m of ascent, countless switchbacks, and breathtaking views all the way to the summit.
We’ll refuel with coffee and a panino at the top before descending into Bormio, where a soothing spa session awaits.
Dinner tonight tastes even better after conquering a legend.
Day 7 – Alpine Recovery Ride
A slower start today — breakfast, spa, and a relaxed mood.
For those with energy to spare, a scenic 26 km (+1,200 m) spin to Lake Cancano offers one last dose of mountain magic.
Later, we’ll enjoy a long lunch, another spa session, and a farewell dinner to celebrate an unforgettable journey.
Day 8 – Verona & Return to Bassano
We check out and make our way toward Verona, stopping for lunch and a walk through the romantic streets of Romeo and Juliet’s city.
After soaking up the charm, we continue to Bassano del Grappa for a final night, a relaxed dinner and well-deserved rest after days of adventure.
Day 9 – Farewell from Venice
Our final breakfast together before driving back to Venice.
