San Pellegrino, Valles, Pampeago, Costalunga – Dolomites all you can climb
An epic adventure in the Dolomites starts in Moena, heart of the Val di Fassa. There is everything in here: passes above 2000 meters of altitude, lakes, long and gentle climbs, steep ones, crazy fast descending. So much history as well: Alpe di Pampeago was one of Marco Pantani's last wins at the Giro d'Italia.
Passo delle Erbe loop from Bressanone
One of the many possible loops featuring the Passo delle Erbe starts from Bressanone. After following the Isarco river on a cycleway, start climbing up the Val di Funes. Amazing scenaries on the Dolomites, with small churches in open fields, will make the climb so much easier. And if you're not ready to close the loop quite yet, you can add the Plan de Corones (Kronplatz) climb from San Vigilio di Marebbe, with a gravel, super fan final section.
The largest mountain group in the Dolomites
This loop circles the Pale di San Martino, the largest mountain group in the Dolomites. The area's lunar landscape is said to have inspired Dino Buzzati’s masterpiece "The Tartar Steppe". The Forcelle Aurine–Passo Cereda combo adds a spicy twist to an already epic ride.
Unknown Passo delle Erbe
Val Pusteria (Pustertal in German) is gaining fame across Italy, it’s the hometown of tennis star Jannik Sinner. From this valley, you can ride a beautiful loop through the quiet, remote roads around Passo delle Erbe. The northern side is a true hidden gem!
