Cycling & mountain biking

Balance, emotion, challenging uphills and thrilling downhills, the fascination of the perpetual and circular motion that connects technology with the soul's striving – that's what cycling in Alta Badia is like. No wonder, these windy roads make part of the Dolomites stage of the Giro d'Italia and attract every year thousands of cyclists for the Maratona dles Dolomites. A great chance to fully enjoy the beauty of the mountain passes along the roads closed for car traffic is offered by such events as the Sellaronda Bike Day and the Dolomites Bike Day.

Those who prefer going off-road will find in the surroundings of the Runcac Hotel in Badia some of the most spectacular MTB tours in the Dolomites, that range from picturesque dirt roads with little elevation gain to spectacular high mountain trails, such as the Sellaronda MTB Track Tour and the Tour of Fanes. Meanwhile, the activity tips of the project Explore Your Way can satisfy even the most experienced and demanding riders, fond of touring, enduro, freeride or e-biking. For further information you can always consult Manfred Irsara, who is not only the chef and the owner of the Runcac Hotel in Badia, but also a cycling enthusiast and a professional bike guide.
