Beyond the Road – Hiking and Rock Climbing with Mountain Pros

Step Off the Bike, Onto the Rock

The Dolomites are not just a rider’s dream — they’re a hiker’s and climber’s playground. When the roar of your engine quiets and the boots come on, another dimension of this iconic mountain range opens before you: one of stillness, challenge, and awe. With our trusted alpine guides, we offer the perfect complement to your moto tour — immersive adventures on foot and vertical granite.

UNESCO-Protected Trails, Endless Possibilities

The Dolomites’ hiking network is among the most celebrated in the world, with well-marked trails leading through limestone towers, meadows, forests, and centuries-old WWI paths carved into the rock. Whether you’re looking for a serene half-day trek or a more strenuous summit ascent, there’s a trail — and a view — waiting for you.

Our guided hikes are fully customizable based on fitness and experience. Options include:

  • Panoramic ridge walks with 360° alpine views

  • Forested trails past alpine lakes and waterfalls

  • Scenic refugios for gourmet lunch breaks

  • Educational nature hikes with geological and botanical insight

Rock Climbing: Where Legends Train

These peaks aren’t just beautiful — they’re legendary. The Dolomites are where generations of elite climbers have come to test themselves. And with our certified IFMGA (International Federation of Mountain Guides Associations) partners, you can do the same — safely and spectacularly.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced climber, our tours offer:

  • Introductory climbing sessions on warm, sunlit walls

  • Multi-pitch alpine routes for advanced climbers

  • Via ferrata (iron paths) for a unique vertical hiking experience

  • All gear provided and fitted by professionals

Via Ferrata: Climb the History

One of the Dolomites’ most iconic experiences is the via ferrata — a protected climbing route first used by soldiers during World War I. Equipped with steel cables, ladders, and harnesses, these routes let even novice adventurers ascend thrilling vertical faces with maximum safety.

It’s not just an activity — it’s time travel.

Our guides select routes based on ability and weather, offering:

  • Half- and full-day climbs

  • Breathtaking summits and ridge traverses

  • Briefings on history, safety, and technique

Safety First, Adventure Always

All our hiking and climbing excursions are led by certified alpine professionals who are fluent in English and trained in both technical mountain safety and luxury guest service. Routes are pre-scouted, weather-checked, and adapted in real time to ensure maximum enjoyment and peace of mind.

We provide:

  • High-quality climbing equipment (helmet, harness, ropes, gloves)

  • Technical clothing rental recommendations

  • Insurance guidance and safety briefings

  • Support vehicle coordination where necessary

An Ideal Add-On to Your Moto Tour

Why climb and hike during a motorcycle tour? Because contrast creates memory. The stillness of the peaks, the rhythm of your steps, the grip of stone under your fingers — all of it balances the freedom and power of life on the bike.

Our clients often choose:

  • One day off-bike dedicated to exploration by foot or rope

  • Post-ride twilight hikes with aperitivo at a mountain hut

  • Sunrise summit climbs followed by breakfast back at the lodge

These experiences deepen your connection to the landscape — and to yourself.

When to Lace Up or Clip In

The climbing and hiking season runs from late May to early October, with the best weather for high-altitude routes between July and September. Spring and early summer bring wildflowers and waterfalls, while fall offers crisp air and fewer crowds.

Walk the Edge of Wonder

The Dolomites are not a place you simply see — they’re a place you feel. And when you hike their trails or scale their verticals with our expert team, you don’t just explore them — you become part of them. Whether on two wheels or two feet, your journey through these mountains is destined to be one of the most powerful stories you’ll ever tell.
