CORTINA MTB WEEKEND
Active
Experience a MTB weekend in Cortina d’Ampezzo: discover the most beautiful and panoramic trails of the Dolomites, UNESCO World Heritage. A local MTB guide will let you discover the greatest trails of Cortina and the famous Dolomites Bike Path (Ciclabile delle Dolomiti), part of the Munich-Venice Path. You will enjoy breathtaking views and taste culinary delicacies in the huts along the routes.
On the last day you can choose whether to finish the trip with a last mountain bike ride or trying a different activity with a mountain guide: have you ever tried a via ferrata? would you like to try a day rock climbing? or why not enjoying a nice trekking along the enchanting trails of Cortina d’Ampezzo?
To make the weekend even more unforgettable a wine tasting with an expert Sommelier is included.

Details of the itineraries

Day 1
Short but extremely enjoyable and panoramic itinerary: first stretch along the bike path, ascent to Rifugio Mietres all the way to the Larieto larch forest to Malga El Brite de Larieto and return.
Day 2
Itinerary along the wonderful Dolomites Bike Path, the most spectacular stretch of the Munich-Venice Bike Path, and former railway route.
From Cortina you go up past the ruins of the Castle of Podestagno, crossing tunnels and streams and enjoying spectacular views. The first section is slightly uphill until you reach Passo Cimabanche. From here the itinerary is along predominantly flat or slightly downhill areas. You will pedal along the wonderful lakes of Landro and Dobbiaco and you will be able to admire the Tre Cime di Lavaredo from a viewpoint on the way. Once in Dobbiaco you can continue either towards Brunico or towards San Candido and then continue towards Austria.
For the way back, you can take the train to Dobbiaco and then return by MTB to Cortina d'Ampezzo.
Day 3
A day with an activity of your choice! You can either keep biking with MTB guide or do a different acitivity, like trekking/ via ferrata/ climbing with a mountain guide.
To make the expereince even more special you can combine the two activities: moutain bike (or E-biking) until reaching the start of the via ferrata / trekking / climbing! You then park you bike and start the other activity. And then back to town by bike.
