Cycling training on the Dolomites passes

To climb these cols requires a good fitness level

Which bike to bring? Bike clothing

"Da pera a pera", from stone to stone: this is how the locals call the last, very tough, 100 meters to reach the top of the Valparola. Constant gradient between 12% and 15%.

It is not possible to climb these mountains on a bike without training. It's crucial to train ahead of the day to enjoy the closed roads and avoid crises along the route. The ideal recommendation is to come to the Dolomites Bike Day having cycled at least 1,000km ahead of the event. Do not underestimate the challenges of these cols. Alternatively, consider using an e-bike.
