The Great Ride

There is a road that crosses Veneto and climbs towards the Dolomites. A road made of landscapes that change, villages rich in history, hills, valleys, and mountains that approach curve after curve. It is a road that does not ask to be traveled quickly. It asks to be experienced.

The Great Ride is an unsupported bikepacking experience from Verona to Cortina d'Ampezzo, an invitation to travel independently at your own pace. No stopwatch. No rankings. No pressure. Just a route to follow and the freedom to interpret it.

From the timeless charm of Verona to the legendary peaks of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, every kilometer tells a different story. You cross authentic territories, places that preserve traditions, flavors, and cultures that make this journey unique. The road becomes a connection: with nature, with the land, with other riders, and with oneself.

Speed does not matter. What happens along the way counts. The sunrise that surprises you in the saddle. The silence of a valley. An unexpected encounter. The satisfaction of conquering a climb and the wonder of seeing Cortina appear on the horizon.

From September 17 to 19, 2026, The Great Ride invites you to experience an adventure that is not measured in kilometers, but in emotions.
