Gravel bike holiday at Lake Levico

We already know the iconic pass roads of Valsugana - time to discover the gravel routes of the region in Trentino! There is plenty to discover on a gravel bike holiday at Lake Levico, both in terms of history and scenery. The southern Dolomites, kitschy, beautiful mountain lakes and unique plateaus characterise the landscape around the second largest lake in Valsugana. The constant alternation of Dolomite panoramas, dense forests, alpine lakes and endless expanses is what makes the legendary racing bike region in Trentino so special. The old military trails in Valsugana, such as the Kaiserjägerweg and the Sentiero della pace, are among the most beautiful bike excursion destinations.

Gravel adventure in Levico Terme

The small historic spa town of Levico Terme, which is located halfway between the Dolomites and Lake Garda, ensures you slow down; the iconic Dolomite passes all around you speed up. On top of that, there are incredible panoramic views and burning calves. Fancy a little taster? There's the Manghen Pass, the Kaiserjägerstraße and the historic Monte Bondone. In short: some of the most beautiful road bike tours in South Tyrol. But away from the tarmac routes, the wonderful wilderness of Trentino opens up: on countless panoramic gravel bike tours, we follow the visible traces of the former mountain front of the First World War, discover the unspoilt Lagorai mountains and jump into the almost undeveloped Lake Levico, whose shores are flanked by steep, wooded slopes. Or into Lake Caldonazzo - a true water sports paradise and the second largest bathing lake in Trentino. Gravel tours on the high plateaus of Lavarone, Asiago & Vezzena provide unique panoramic views.
