Dolomiti Gravel
Start your gravel cycling adventure and have the trip of a lifetime in the Dolomites
The Dolomites:an
unmissable destination for cyclists from all over the world
The Dolomites are among the most beautiful mountains in the world.
These mountains with fantastic rock shapes rise as iso lated massifs, separated from each other by saddles, ridges and deep valleys. High-altitude grasslands, larch and fir forests, valleys furrowed by rushing streams, mountain huts and villages connected by an unparalleled path network welcome you.
The Dolomites are shared by three Italian regions and occupy the north-eastern portion of the Alps. These unique mountains in the world characterize the territory of Trentino Alto-Adige (western and north-western Dolomites), Veneto (north-eastern, central and southern Dolomites) and Friuli Venezia Giulia (eastern Dolomites). The more you move east, the more the natural component and the sense of loneliness become predominant. Whichever gravel road you take among the Dolomiti Gravel offers you will be guaranteed to enjoy only the best gravel bike itineraries.
Declared a world heritage site by Unesco
,
the Dolomites are under threat from mass tourism, overexploitation and climate change. We believe that exploring the Dolomites by bicycle - as on foot - is the only way to leave as few traces as possible of our passage, living an authentic travel experience.

About us
Alberto started mountain biking in the early 90s and immediately chose the bicycle as the way to live his adventures. From the first experiences in the Alps to long solo bicycle trips to explore our planet, in search of its wildest places, where to live in connection with nature and different cultures.
Franziska is our alpinist, gym and Pilates teacher, strong gravel cyclists and... food lover! She is in charge of the accomodation booking but most of her time is spent trying new restaurants and delicious dishes for you. If her phone is off she will be for sure in a patisserie or in an ice-cream shop!
Federico is one of the top three official bike mechanic on Shimano Europe, he is always ready to go out for an adventure by bike or to enjoy a party at night with his unmissable gin tonic in hand. He is in charge to keep all our gravel bike fleet in excellent conditions (before gin tonic!)
One lucky day Alberto meets Timo the dog, since then an unsurpassed companion during the long days of bikepacking in search of the most beautiful trails in the Dolomites. Timo is now enjoying the heavenly paths and has passed the baton to Mapu the dog.
Mapu is still young and practicing tasting all the bikepacking gear with his teeth. He will soon become an expert and will accompany us on the next wild gravel adventures in our mountains, the Dolomites.
