Cycling on gravel roads through the beautiful Italian countryside is like taking a journey through history itself. On the old military roads, which have their origins in the First World War, we are reminded of the courage and perseverance of those who once fought here. But now, peaceful and full of adventure, a gravel heaven awaits you. Trento Gravel Escape has it all: asphalt, steep climbs, beautiful gravel and challenging trails.
We will cycle with you through the mountains for four days, enjoying the beauty of nature and the silence. There will certainly be some suffering. When you arrive at the hotel after a day of cycling, your suitcase will already be in your room. Our support vehicle will bring your luggage to the various accommodations in Asiago, Bassano del Grappa, Arsiero and Levico Terme.
Maximum enjoyment!
If you pay the travel sum in one go, you will receive a €75 discount.
A great adventure in the mountains where the route takes you along old military roads. A beautiful remnant of the First World War. In four days we cycle from Levico Terme to Levico Terme and cover 350 km with 7,000 meters of altitude. As much as possible on gravel roads. Away from the people, away from the hustle and bustle!

The beauty of the Trento/Veneto region is that the routes are quite easy to shorten or extend. Above is our basic program. Do you want to make more or less kilometers? Let us know!
For the Trento Gravel Escape we expect you to be in good shape. The rough, coarse gravel is merciless. The paths are sometimes steep and narrow where your technical skills are occasionally required. On this trip we offer multiple routes of different levels per day. Taking it easy for a day is possible. If you choose the toughest routes, you must be able to cycle 60-90 km every day with 1500-2000 meters of elevation. That requires good preparation. In addition, you must of course be adventurous!
01. What is the average distance per day?
The average distance varies between 40 and 80 km per day, depending on the trip. This is suitable for cyclists with a reasonable to good condition.
02. Do I have to bring my own bicycle?
Yes, generally. On some trips you can also rent a bike. On trips that involve flying, a bike can generally be rented. This is stated during the booking process.
03. Is there a follow-up vehicle available?
Yes, usually there is a follow-up vehicle for luggage and for support in emergencies. Or to refill the water bottle on the way.
04. Can I determine the route myself?
With group travel the route is predetermined, but sometimes there are options for extra routes or breaks. We are always happy to think along about alternative routes.
05. Is the trip suitable for beginners?
Group trips are often suitable for different levels. Check the level of the trip in advance. The level is indicated with a number of stars for each trip.
06. What happens if I can no longer cycle?
There is often a follow-up vehicle or support team to pick you up if you can't go any further.
07. What is included in the price?
Usually accommodation, breakfast and dinner, sports drinks, technical support, 1x sports massage, starting certificates and guidance are included. Costs for flight tickets, bike rental or personal expenses (lunch and drinks) are often additional costs.
08. Are the routes difficult?
The difficulty level varies. For the trips with a Granfondo we offer routes that ensure that you are fit at the start on the day of the Granfondo. You cycle less than on a tour where longer and heavier rides are offered. For the tours, the participants have a choice almost every day between a longer/heavier or shorter/easier route.
09. Do I need to take out insurance?
Yes, travel and cancellation insurance is always recommended, as well as insurance for damage to the bike or medical emergencies.
10. What type of accommodation is used?
After a day of cycling you want to be able to relax. That is why we at CYCLOsportive generally stay in 4-star hotels. Occasionally we stay in a 3-star hotel, but then we think it deserves 4 stars! We know how important it is to be able to rest in a good bed and to be able to eat well in the evening and enjoy a good breakfast in the morning!
11. Can I keep up a little? Or are they all semi-pros who are coming along?
Yes, you can come along. No, there will be no half-pros. There will always be a difference in level. At CYCLOsportive we always go out with relatively small groups and can split the group during cycling so that everyone can enjoy themselves at their own level.
12. Can I also participate as a woman?
Yes! Fortunately, we see more and more women on bikes and also on our trips. It creates a nice dynamic in the group. So come along!
13. Do we have to do everything together or can I sometimes do my own thing?
A group trip has a program and we offer that every day. In the evening we brief you about the program of the next day. If you want to make your own plan, that is perfectly fine. Going out alone is not something we advise. We are happy to think with you about alternative routes if the group program does not suit you completely.
14. How do I get my bike to its destination?
On most trips you have to arrange your own transportation. Only at GF Strade Bianche we transport your bike and luggage. And we book the flight for you. We plan a drop-off and pick-up day. You fly to the destination with only hand luggage and arrange transfers from the airport to the hotel.
15. How can I best prepare for the trip in terms of training?
Keep in mind that you will be cycling for four or five days in a row. If you are not used to this, practice this at home. In addition, it is advisable to use a training schedule (at least 3 months) to be well trained.
16. Are there also introductory rides?
We plan at least 1x an online meeting in which we give the participants the opportunity to get to know each other a little better and where questions about the trip can be asked. A few times a year we organize social rides for which participants can register.
17. A trip has an odd number of participants. Will there be a charge for a single room?
If you choose a single room, we will charge for that. If it is not the choice of a participant, but it happens to be that way, we will not charge any costs.
18. Is a medical certificate required on this trip?
To be allowed to participate in this trip, participants do not need to be in possession of a medical certificate. It is wise to check well before the trip (6 months) by means of an effort test whether you are in good health. Such an effort test also provides insight into the training work that must be delivered in order to start the trip in good condition.
Participants have the option to be guided for 3 months through an exercise test and training schedule. The training guidance is optional. Inquire about the possibilities: gv@cyclosportive.nl.
