Gravel bike holiday in Alta Badia
When you think of Alta Badia, you automatically think of the glorious passes of the Dolomites: Because the Sellaronda with the Campolongo, the Pordoi, the Sella Pass and the Gardena Pass, the Marmolada with the Fedaia Pass, the Würzjoch and the Giau Pass are THE places every road biker longs for. The ultimate once-in-a-lifetime bike adventures. But the UNESCO World Heritage Site also has unspeakably beautiful side roads. And secluded valleys. And rustic alpine huts made of heavy timber, which are worth every diversions and every effort. It is therefore absolutely worthwhile to experience the Dolomites away from their legendary pass roads. Or simply pack everything under a helmet on a gravel bike holiday in Alta Badia - from the steepest serpentines to the most beautiful gravel roads.
Well trained? Then off to the Sellaronda!
Alta Badia is still an insider tip among gravel bikers - after all, road bikers dominate the roads here. But the Dolomites region is also absolutely unique away from its iconic mountain pass legends. Gentle gravel bike tours lead past steep rock faces, high alpine tours up to well-hidden mountain pastures. Gravel biking takes you around the Sella massif and on THE panoramic tour of the Dolomites. The iconic Sellaronda MTB panoramic tour takes you around the Sella Group in two versions, covering 58 km and 1,800 metres in altitude - or 53 km and 900 metres in altitude. Alternatively, the lifts transport bikers and bikes to the Gardena and Sella Passes as well as the Campolongo Pass and Pordoi Pass in no time at all. If you don't want to share the iconic pass roads with cars, mark the car-free Sellaronda Bike Day in red in your diary now, because on this day, two-wheel enthusiasts have the sole say here! A Dolomite spectacle just the way we like it. By the way, taste: Alta Badia without the traditional South Tyrolean specialities would be like the Dolomites without peaks. Enjoyment is simply part of a gravel bike holiday in Alta Badia in South Tyrol.
