Cycling the Dolomites
A cycling tour through the Dolomites and the Trentino-Alto Adige Südtirol region of Italy will take you through a region marked by significant historical change and rich cultural diversity amidst a backdrop of stunning mountains and verdant valleys.
Geologically unique, the Dolomites’ dramatic peaks are a product of ancient coral reefs. It is also one of the few landscapes that are declared a UNESCO World Heritage site due to the geological and historical significance.
The blend of Italian, Austrian, and Ladin influences converge in this region and is reflected in architecture, food, language, and traditions. The region’s history is marked by the strategic positioning of ancient trade routes that turned into the frontlines of conflict. During World War I, the Dolomites witnessed the brutal reality of war and the resulting changes in national borders has created the blending of languages and cultures.
On a bike, you will see firsthand how this region bridges past and present: where medieval castles stand against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks, and ancient traditions thrive amidst modern life.
