In spring, when meadows and woods turn bright green, Veneto's roads turn pink to host one of the most famous bicycle stage races in the world: the Tour of Italy.

From the streets down in the valleys up to the Dolomite passes, enthusiasts and residents light up the party to support the feats of cycling champions. After the race, the charm of the event is enshrined in a unique and inimitable natural environment.

Here we suggest hikes and climbs of varying difficulty. Everyone's efforts are rewarded by unforgettable views.

Veneto features personalized ideas for lovers of cycling throughout the year. The Tour of Italy passing through marks the beginning of the cycling season in the roads and passes of the Dolomites. Autumn is a magical season to ride your bicycle on hill roads where you can view the grape harvest and on climbs over the Prealps where the woods come alive with a thousand colors. You can keep fit in the winter thanks to the mild climate of the Euganean Hills and Lake Garda and the vacation packages offered by lake and spa hotels and resorts.
