MTB area Val Gardena – Alpe di Siusi
In the Val Gardena – Alpe di Siusi bike region, both beginners and advanced bikers will have a great time, whether they choose the challenging mountain bike tours in the Dolomites or the more pleasant and enjoyable bike rides along the valley.
Cycling and mountain biking in Selva and the surrounding area is the best way to get close to nature. The cycle paths are located off the main roads, along quiet country lanes that cross all the 3 village centres of Val Gardena and take you to panoramic spots of great beauty. Some of the routes are easier and therefore ideal for less experienced cyclists.
Bike paradise Dolomites
The Dolomites, those magnificent and bizarre mountains in the Alps of South Tyrol, offer many varied tours for motorcyclists. In addition to knife-edge curves, great hairpin turns and a lot of switchbacks which may test your balance, the fantastic landscape of the UNESCO World Heritage Site will leave you breathless as well. It doesn't matter which part of the Dolomites you explore. Majestic and massive mountains tower over deeply carved valleys. Val Gardena is particularly suitable for bikers, as the holiday region offers mountain passes with attractive roads that can be reached quickly, especially from Selva.
At the reception you will find a catalogue with detailed suggestions for tours starting from our hotel.
You can park your bike in the garage of the Hotel Welponer free of charge.
