tour overview

The Veneto is a region most cyclists only ever see from the asphalt, but there is another Veneto, hidden just off the main roads, that few ever get to ride. This tour is our invitation into that side of the region: the gravel roads, the WWI mule tracks, the forest paths and mountain passes that only locals know how to string together.
Over a week, you’ll ride deep into the inner side of the Veneto. In the Dolomites, we link the legendary Passi together off-road, following the tracks and mule paths that climb quietly beside the asphalt everyone else is racing along. The trip continues through the wild plateau of Asiago, over the slopes of the passes of the Venetian Pre-Alps, and into the villages and vineyard-draped hills of Prosecco.

Away from the road, the Veneto slows down: no traffic, no noise, just the rhythm of the climb and the quiet company of the mountains.

It’s in these moments, on a ridge, or deep in a forest track that this region reveals itself. Almost entirely off-road, every day has its own texture. There’s a particular feeling to riding alpine gravel at altitude, the thin air, the silence broken only by your tires on loose stone, the scent of pine rising from the forest as the trail dips into the trees.
What makes this tour different is simple: we know this land because it’s home. Every track, every pass, every shortcut through the woods comes from years of riding these roads ourselves, and every ride is a chance to share not just the route, but the place itself and the stories behind it.

This is gravel riding at its most, genuine, remote, unpolished, and deeply connected to the land.

Inclusions & Details

Accommodation

Your home for the week will be carefully selected 3 and 4-star cycling-friendly hotels, chosen for comfort, location, and hospitality. All stays are in twin share rooms with private bathrooms, with the option of single occupancy available on request. Where possible, a cycling kit laundry service is included, so you can focus on the rides without worrying about the small details.

Ride Support

Every ride is fully supported by our experienced guides, both on and off the bike. We keep our groups small, with a maximum of 12 guests including guides, to ensure a personal and friendly atmosphere. One guide will ride alongside you, while another follows in the support van carrying daypacks, spare parts, hydration, and ride snacks. Mechanical support is always close at hand, and we’ll provide downloadable GPS routes with assistance for setting up your device.

Transfers to and from Airport

From the moment you arrive in Italy, we’ll take care of all transfers. Pick-up and drop-off services are arranged from airports and agreed locations at the start and end of the tour. We’ll also transport all baggage and bikes, as well as handle internal transfers between daily destinations, regions, and hotels, so your focus remains on enjoying the ride.

Bike rental

To make your trip easier, we offer high-quality gravel bike rentals at a great weekly rate, so you can travel light without worrying about transporting your own bike. If you’d prefer a different ride, e-bikes and mountain bikes are also available on request. Just let us know your preference.


Mangia e bevi

Cycling in Italy is as much about food as it is about the ride. During the tour, daily breakfast is included, giving you the energy to start each day on the bike. Lunches and dinners are not included, so we can remain flexible and choose the best local trattorie and restaurants along the way, discovering authentic Tuscan cuisine and world-famous wines. This also gives you the freedom to enjoy a relaxing evening at your own pace if you prefer to explore the town on your own. On the bike, nutrition is provided, like bars, gels, and drinks, and of course, the essential coffee and pastry stops are on us.

InGiro cycling kit

Each tour features a custom InGiro cycling kit, designed to capture the spirit of the journey. You’ll receive a premium jersey and bib shorts, along with a special welcome pack prepared with our compliments. It’s both a keepsake and a practical companion, something you’ll wear proudly on the roads of Italy and beyond.
