Dolomites by Bike

On 2 August 2020 you cannot miss the unique experience of cycling 48 km from Passo Cimabanche to Calalzo di Cadore! Come and immerse yourself in nature by rediscovering spectacular landscapes, enjoying the fresh and clean air while doing activities.

At the Cimabanche pass you can refuel with water and above all admire Cortina and the surrounding mountains. From here to the "queen of the Dolomites" is a long descent, through woods, lakes and intense scents of vegetation. The tunnels and bridges of the old railway add a special charm to this track on which fatigue seems almost not to be felt. Today, the ancient charm of Cortina blends with its new glamorous soul: along the streets of the center there are the same boutiques in Milan and Paris while some restaurants offer traditional specialties revisited by star chefs.

After crossing the scenic railway bridge, we leave for Zuel from where we can admire the old Cortina ski jump, used for the 1956 Winter Olympics. to enjoy in an even more pleasant way the Croda da Lago, the Pelmo, the Croda Marcora and the Antelao, which with its 3,264 meters of height is the second peak of the Dolomites.

About 20 kilometers after Cortina you reach San Vito di Cadore and Lake Mosigo. A few more rides and, in Venas di Cadore, you can decide on a detour to Cibiana (four kilometers and 200 meters in altitude) which offers an unparalleled view of the Sassolungo.

In the last stretch, the effect of the descent is almost imperceptible but the finish line is now close: just over 10km to Calalzo di Cadore. Meeting of the participants in Calalzo, loading of the bikes in the bus and return to the places of origin of the tour, with expected arrival in the evening.
