Cycling day trip from Corvara to Canazei

This route takes you from Corvara, nestled in the heart of the Alta Badia region, to the lively mountain village of Canazei. It’s about 30 km long, but don’t let the distance fool you—this ride packs a real punch with almost 1,850 meters of climbing and even more descending, so get ready for some epic views and a solid workout!

You’ll start in Corvara, a classic Dolomites cycling hub famous for its Ladin culture and jaw-dropping peaks. The journey weaves through a rugged mix of gravel, ground, and tracks, so a gravel or mountain bike is ideal. Most of your ride is on unpaved sections, with only short stretches of asphalt—perfect for those who love adventure off the beaten path.

Expect to climb high, topping out near 2,370 meters, passing stunning alpine meadows and maybe even spotting some marmots. The descent into Canazei is a thrill, dropping you into another Dolomites gem, well-known for its welcoming après-bike vibe.

In short: challenging terrain, epic Dolomite scenery, and two of the region’s coolest towns at the start and finish—what more could you want?
