Passo Giau – road bike tours in Alta Badia

05:15

82.5km

2,450m

Road cycling

The Giau Pass takes you up to 2,233 meters and treats you to the finest asphalt and beautiful views. You drive through the idyllic mountain landscape of the Dolomites, which - the higher you go - becomes increasingly rough and takes on a high alpine character. And the best thing is: a pass rarely comes alone! You can combine it with many other passes and that is exactly what we suggest with this tour: In addition to the Giau Pass, today you will climb the Campolongo, Valparola and Falzarego passes.

At the end of the tour, you will have covered a whopping 80 kilometers and around 2,300 meters of altitude on your speedometer! As a reward, there are always breathtaking descents.

Corvara

Highlight • Settlement

Around 52 kilometers and 1,700 meters in altitude are waiting for you if you want to ride the famous Sella Ronda through the Dolomites. This is particularly attractive during the Sella Ronda Bike Day. Every year the route around the Sella Group is closed to cars and motorbikes for seven hours, you can only ride your bike there - a great event. Corvara is a great starting point for the big round. When you get back, a fresh espresso is waiting for you here!

Campolongo Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Campolongo is the "smallest" of the Dolomite passes, and the elevation gain is relatively manageable at 368 meters (north ascent from Corvara). Nevertheless, it's a beautiful route: You gaze down upon lush mountain meadows on one side and up at the rugged rock faces of the Sella massif on the other. On the Sella Ronda, it's the "fourth in the group" and more of a small "pleasure pass" than a tough challenge.

Arabba

Highlight • Settlement

If you look at the area around Arabba on the map, you will find a lot of well-known pass roads. No wonder: Arabba is located between the Sella group and the Marmolada massif and when you ride the Sella Ronda, you come here automatically. Whether as a break or base camp for a racing bike holiday: In any case, it is really nice in the small town in the heart of the Dolomites.

Colle Santa Lucia

Highlight • Settlement

Pretty little village. Just driving through would be a pity, a short visit through the well-preserved old houses leaves a positive impression.

Passo Giau

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

One of the most beautiful passes in the Dolomites, hard at the right point, super panoramic. If I greet from the side of Selva di Cadore, it is spectacular every meter to the top.

Valparola Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Valparola pass connects the Val Badia to the upper Agordino. It is located at an altitude of 2,192 meters, just two kilometers away from the Falzarego pass. Near the pass there is a small lake called Valparola.

... of the Dolomites. Acclimatization and route reconnaissance lap - what awaits us on the second loop at Passo Giau 🤓🤠
Actually, my opinion is that you should saddle up the best horse for the tough adventures 🤔😎
However, the bike with Signore Maestro Zullo's frame only has a short derailleur cage, which can only accommodate a maximum of 29 …

Alpine tour 2024, fourth day: over the Campolongo Pass down to Corvara and behind La Villa turn right to the Valparole Pass. Unfortunately there is a lot of traffic: motorcycles, motorhomes, buses. Exhaust fumes and noise. Close overtaking when driving in the opposite direction (the 🇩🇪 drivers are mostly the commendable exception).
From the Valparole Pass you drive straight down …

Today, it was Ciao Giau as we said goodbye, thankfully in a less warm weather. At Falzarego, I met the Lavaredo Ultra Trail runners for the first time; I saw them again at Giau. It's a complete mystery to me how anyone can run 120 km through the high mountains. But the flatland Tyroleans in sandals probably think the same …
