Madonna di Campiglio Mountain Bike Adventure

Get familiar with your bike and the terrain, and ease into your first day of riding with a scenic loop to Lago di Valagola, a hidden alpine gem within the Adamello Brenta Nature Park.

The gravel route meanders through larch and pine forests, leading to turquoise waters reflecting the Brenta Dolomites. We will pause to take in the stillness of the valley before returning via the historic Campiglio road, which opens to sweeping views of the peaks.

Then we head back into town, where you can enjoy free time to explore Madonna di Campiglio. Treat yourself to some of the best cakes and sweet treats at Arnica Café and Pasticceria, or sit back, relax, and take in the atmosphere with an afternoon Aperitivo!

Duration: 4hrs | Distance: 24 km | Elevation Gain: 832 m

We take a ride through the lush meadows and wooded slopes dotted with malghe, traditional summer mountain farms and dairies that define Trentino’s pastoral heritage.

This circular route passes Malga Montagnoli, Malga Mondifrè, and Malga Vigo, where you’ll stop for a well-earned coffee, and if you like, try some typical mountain treats – it’s hard to go past the strudel!

Along the way, enjoy sweeping views of the Brenta peaks and the Campo Carlo Magno pass, where you will see a breathtaking panorama of the Brenta Dolomites’ towering, rugged limestone spires.

In the afternoon, we visit Birreria 1550, Madonna di Campiglio’s local brewery, for a tasting of craft beers brewed with Dolomite spring water.

Duration: 2hrs40m | Distance: 26.5 km | Elevation Gain: 828 m

Today you will experience one of the more challenging and rewarding rides, full of variation and excitement! We climb into the high alpine zone on the Tour delle Marmotte, an enduro-style ride that rewards effort with unforgettable views. The trail winds above the treeline beneath Pietra Grande and the summit of Vagliana, areas known for frequent marmot sightings and the vast panoramas of the Brenta massif.

Expect a mix of rocky climbs, thrilling descents, and quiet moments where the only sound is the wind.

After returning to Campiglio, experience a dinner at a local restaurant serving mountain specialties. Expect cheeses, meats, hearty soups, potato pancakes, or dumplings, to name a few!

Duration: 4hrs45m | Distance: 30 km | Elevation Gain: 1,183 m

This ride is a true highlight of the week! Our route climbs steadily through forested slopes and alpine pastures toward Malga Movlina, set on a broad mountain plateau at nearly 1,800 m.

As the trees thin, the landscape opens to one of the most breathtaking viewpoints in the entire Brenta range, a sweeping, 360-degree panorama stretching across the Dolomites, Presanella, and Adamello peaks. From here, the rugged cliffs of the Brenta massif dominate the skyline, while green meadows roll out beneath you. After taking in the scenery and perhaps spotting grazing cattle, wildlife, and alpine wildflowers, we descend along the winding forest trails back toward Campiglio.

Round off the day in classic Italian style with an aperitivo at a local bar, as the setting sun paints the Brenta walls in glowing shades of pink and amber.

Duration: 4hrs30m | Distance: 25 km | Elevation Gain: 1,263 m

Follow the celebrated DOGA Trail, the cross-Alpine cycling route linking the Dolomites of Brenta to Lake Garda. It is a long route, but don’t worry, it contains a lot of downhill and a variety of terrain from bike paths to wilderness trails.

Beginning near Stenico, the path winds through alpine meadows and the archaeological plains of Fiavè before reaching the Rio Bianco Waterfall, a striking karst spring that bursts directly from the rock within the Adamello Brenta Nature Park.

As you descend, the landscape transforms: spruce forests give way to chestnut groves and gentle hills. Crossing Passo del Ballino, the air turns warmer until the blue expanse of the spectacular Lake Garda appears ahead – your grand finale!

Return by bus to Madonna di Campiglio.

Enjoy a well-deserved farewell dinner at the hotel restaurant, sharing your adventures on a week of alpine adventure, and unforgettable rides through one of Italy’s most captivating mountain landscapes.

Duration: 8hrs | Distance: 77 km | Elevation Gain: 795 m | Descent: 2,270 m
