THROUGH THE DOLOMITI PARK 
BY BIKE

A 5 day cycle tour

A cyclo touring route " bike + train" , for well trained people, starting from Feltre railway station and arriving at Longarone railway station. A very good training, ( the difference of level and the distance in kilometres are not within everybody's reach) and the ability to move through an area with the help of a map are required. Your luggage is to be bought with you.
The travelling times are cycle-touring, suitable for those who love visiting places and small villages, enjoying the wonderful views and with no concern about the hourly average, the pedal frequence and times. This is the typical behaviour of people who prefer a sporting use of bikes. Considering the nature of the route an MTB would be advisable an MTB, but if you abandon the idea of reaching the highest points you can use a simple bike, but equipped with MTB gears. The TIMETABLE hasto just be considered as an indication.
In any moment one can cut short one's journey, by going downhill and reaching the nearest railway station of the network which crosses the Val Belluna longutudinally. Only on the third day, the route develops far from from the railway track.
During these five days you will be allowed to visit some of the fantastic sites of the "Parco delle Dolomiti Bellunesi" along the panoramic uncrowded roads going through the host of little villages surrounding the Park area .Even by bike it is not unusual to come across some wild animals or by using binoculars watch: deer, foxes, chamois, and different kinds of birds of prey. The route goes uphill twice, in " Busa delle Vette" and in " Caiada" and goes through some of the villages which divide the park: Val Canazoi, Valle del Mis and the Canale d'Agordo. As far as food is concerned, you will find all the necessary information about the refreshment places whose availability you need to check calling at least the day before. But for those who just want a packed lunch there are a lot of shops along the route.
You can sleep in the farm holidays on the route or in hotels but you have to book them in advance, above all if you are going to plan the route at the height of summer
