Arrival and pick up at the airport of Venice. Transfer to Pozza di Fassa.
Stage 1: Pozza de Fassa – Caprile
Distance: 36 km, 740 mts up

At Venice airport, we take the transfer to Pozza di Fassa where our guide will explain us how to enjoy every kilometer of the Giro. For our first stage we cycle through the beautiful village of Canazei, where our first climb begins, called the Fedaia, on the foot of the famous «La Marmolada» mountain top. We descent to Caprile where we spend the night.

Distance : 93km + 1800mts up

This might be a long stage but we do more descent than ascent today, with an easy 50 km at the end of the day. We cycle out of Caprile in search of the Passo di Pordoi, where the statue of Fausto Coppi stands. After a fast descent we climb the Passo de Sella. The views at the top are stunning but it is time to descent all the way into Bolzano. Once arrived at Bolzano, a transfer is ready to take us to our accommodation. If you prefer to continue, you can cycle until Merano, our last stop (+30km).

Distance: 94km, 2.400 up (Queen Stage)

This stage is a must for all cyclists, the climb of the Stelvio! The day starts easy, before we start our big climb. The further we go up, the more beautiful the views become. Then we arrive at 2770m, the top! Enjoy the amazing views before we descend to the most famous of all GIRO villages, Bormio.

Distance: 78km / 2000mts up (Queen Stage)

In our Giro, we cross the GAVIA pass at 2665 MTS. We attack this climb that for years has been and still is the «big monster» at the gates of the Dolomites. At the top we have a view of one of the most beautiful lakes of the Alps and a glacier of more than 10,000 years old. We are next to mountains of more than 4,000 metres high.
From here we have nothing but descent until Aprica, with an average percentage of 3%. Aprica has been and will be the arrival of many Giro stages, another mandatory stop for all cyclists.
We have got a little surprise for those who still have some strength left in the legs!

Distance: 95km / 600mts up - recovery day.

We leave the village of Aprica, the third and last of our «Giro-villages» in the Dolomites. A gentle descent for the next 60 km takes us along the big Alpine mountains to arrive at Lake Como, with its villages Bellagio o Varenna. For the next 20 km we cycle along the lake and conquer a small ascent of 250 metres after which we have an amazing view of the lake. We descent to the village of Varenna where we load the bicycles into the van and drive to the other side of the lake, passing the villages of Bellagio and at Cadenabbia we cycle the last leg until we arrive at Villa del Balbaniello and Lenno. This is a stage for sprinters! We will have time to recover from the hard work in the Dolomites and get ready for the following, spectacular stages.

We take a transfer to Saint Vincent (2h20) where we are going to spend the night.

Distance: 85km / 1300mts up.

During the 6th stage we cycle up Europe´s most beautiful mountain, el Cervino (Matterhorn). This is a long but not very tough ascent to the paradise of the Alps. Once at the top we take our time to enjoy the unforgettable views.
From here it is all descent to the village of Aosta. During the descent we can do an optional ascent, off the official Giro Tour.

Distance: 80km / 1700mts up.

Last stage ... and last big surprise! We will cycle across the Alps into France via the Petit Sant Bernard. At 2200m high, we will be able to enjoy some of the best views of the MONT BLANC and its glacier. This view means we have achieved our goal and that we have earned our GIRO D’ITALIA maillot!
Descent to BOURG SAINT MAURICE where our tour finishes.

Transfer to ANNECY where we spend the night (2h)

Free day and departure to Geneve airport (1h).
