DAY 4
Breakfast in the hotel, bike check and departure at 8:30 by van to reach Val di Fassa. There, we will face the famous all-round tour of Giro dei 4 Passi but we will decide where to start from. The altitude gap is 2,360 meters, therefore we will have our lunch "on the road" to enjoy the surrounding panorama of this great tour. We can face a different and more demanding way towards Passo Valparola instead of riding to Passo Campolongo to ride back to Passo Pordoi from Arabba. We will choose what to do.
As happened in the previous day, once at the hotel we will leave our bikes to get them checked and cleaned. We will have a tasty snack and get relaxed in our room before going to the wellness area and have a massage.
After dinner, we will meet in the basement room of the hotel (called “taverna”) for the briefing and the photo viewing to live again the emotions and fatigues experienced on your bike.
