Experience the thrill of cycling through the beating heart of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Led by our expert guides, you will tackle one of the world's most renowned mountain biking circuits: the Sellaronda. By utilizing the lift systems, you can focus entirely on the joy of the ride, soaking in breathtaking vistas stretching from the Sella Group to the Marmolada.

This tour offers a perfect blend of technical singletracks and adrenaline-pumping flow trails, featuring rejuvenating breaks at high-altitude mountain huts to savor authentic Ladin cuisine.

The Sellaronda can be ridden in two directions, each presenting unique characteristics and challenges. Both tours depart conveniently from Arabba.
