Two unforgettable days on a mountain bike around the fantastic Sella Group.
We propose the itinerary of the Sellaronda MTB Tour Hourly, marked by the orange colour. First of all, let's report some data: the total distance is 62.5 km, with a pedaled elevation gain of 370 m and a bicycle descent of 4310 m. The journey time varies from 5 to 8 hours (including lunch break).
This tour is simply fantastic: you ride in the heart of the Dolomites, enjoying wonderful landscapes, crossing four valleys - Val di Fassa, Val Gardena, Alta Badia and Arabba - and three provinces - Trento, Bolzano and Belluno.
The MTB excursion presents some difficulties that we will analyze in detail. Firstly, the length: covering 62.5 km on a mountain bike in an alpine environment is not easy, different from covering the same distance on the road.
The descent, although it seems strange, requires a lot of physical effort, both for the legs and for the arms, above all considering the sections S1 and S2. Furthermore, you must pay close attention to falls, as in some stretches they can be fatal.
Finally, the technical traits: If you don't want to constantly push your bike on descents, you need to have a good command of mountain bike riding skills.
As you may have guessed, the Tour is of medium-difficult level and is aimed at cyclists with established riding skills. This type of person will have a great time while minimizing the risk of falls.
For this reason, we recommend dividing the Tour into two days and being accompanied by an expert guide of the four valleys, who will support you along the entire route by providing technical information, driving advice and suggesting the most suitable route for your cycling skills.
