OPTIONAL EXTRAS
Welcome to the ultimate cycling adventure in the heart of the Italian Alps! Begin your journey by arriving in the charming town of Bormio, where you’ll have the option to cycle a warm-up tour called Laghi di Cancano, covering 30 kilometers and 750 meters of elevation. This is the perfect way to get your legs warmed up before the real challenge begins.
Get ready to conquer the most famous climb in the Dolomites – the Stelvio Pass. With its stunning views and challenging gradients, this 2,757-meter climb is the second-highest pass in the Alps and is a must-do for any serious cyclist.
Next, it’s time to take on the Passo Gavia – another epic climb that will test your limits and reward you with breathtaking views after you gain 1363 altitude meters over the course of 17.3 kilometers.
And if you’re up for an extra challenge, you can choose to extend your trip by one more day and tackle the Mortirolo Pass, known as one of the toughest climbs in Europe.
Throughout your journey, you’ll have the chance to experience the local culture and cuisine, stay in cozy accommodations, and enjoy delicious meals. And with our professional guidance, you can focus on the ride and leave the logistics to us.

We had a wonderful cycling trip, starting in Trieste, then onto Slovenia and Croatia. Before the trip, Klemen was extremely patient with our many questions and addressed our concerns very satisfactorily- even changing the original bike route to meet our needs. The bikes we used ( e-bikes) were in great condition, and easy to use. The hotels were very satisfactory- and included big breakfasts to start our days. The towns we visited were charming. All in all- a first class experience!!


Great trip: excellent customer service, great route, excellent hotel stays during the tour. The bike rental company that they use is the best I've ever experienced in Europe. I am even planning to buy the same bike for myself at home that I had on the trip! We had this service also book our stay for after the tour, and that is the only thing I would do differently next time, since the hotel for the several days after the tour was not very good, had mediocre service and not a good location. But for the tour, I would definitely recommend DenmarkBikeTours.
Exploring Tuscany on a self-guided cycling holiday was pure joy. The carefully curated routes took me through vineyards, olive groves, and picturesque towns like Siena and Pienza. I loved being able to stop whenever I wanted to soak in the views or enjoy a cappuccino in a quaint café. The GPS and route notes were spot-on, and the logistics, from luggage transfers to charming accommodations, were seamless. Tuscany’s beauty is best experienced on two wheels, and the freedom to set my own pace made it unforgettable.
