Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Selva di Val Gardena à Canazei

Get ready for a stunning ride through the heart of the Dolomites! This route takes you from Sëlva (also known as Selva di Val Gardena), a charming alpine village famous for its world-class skiing and breathtaking mountain scenery, all the way to Canazei, another gem nestled at the foot of towering peaks.

You’ll be climbing and descending through a landscape of dramatic mountain passes, with about 3,800 meters of ascent and a little bit more descent, so make sure your legs (and brakes!) are up for the task. Most of the route is on paved surfaces, and you’ll enjoy a good mix of dedicated cycleways, quiet roads, and some stretches of gravel to keep things interesting.

The ride is long—nearly 150 km—with ever-changing panoramas, so plan on a full day in the saddle, soaking up epic views around every hairpin bend. At journey’s end, Canazei welcomes you with its alpine charm, great food, and maybe a chance to rest your legs in a cozy café. This is Dolomite cycling at its finest!
