Day-by-Day Cycling Itinerary
Treviso to Bassano via Montello and Asolo
Depart from Treviso, with an optional visit to the Pinarello headquarters boutique store. Enjoy an easy ride through pastoral landscapes and charming villages toward the Montello, a favorite training ground for local cyclists.
Venture further into the Montello or head directly to the Asolo Hills to visit the picturesque hilltop town of Asolo before arriving in beautiful Bassano del Grappa.
Exploring Bassano and Beyond
Choose your adventure: a relaxed ride through the scenic Valsugana Valley, a challenging ascent of the iconic Monte Grappa, or a loop through the Asolo Hills to Possagno, the birthplace of the renowned sculptor Canova.
Spend the evening wandering the streets of Bassano and savoring cicchetti, the local small-plate delicacies.
Bassano to Vicenza via Marostica and the Alto Vicentino
Begin at the iconic Ponte degli Alpini in Bassano, then ride to Marostica, famous for its chessboard piazza. Skirt the edge of the Asiago Plateau, choosing either a flatter route directly to the UNESCO city of Vicenza or tackling hillier terrain in the Alto Vicentino before descending to the city.
From Vicenza into the Berici and Euganei Hills
Cycle through Vicenza, home to Campagnolo components, Palladian architecture, and incredible cycling routes. Explore the Berici Hills south of town, with options ranging from a flat ride along the hills’ edge with views of Palladian villas to a more ambitious loop covering both the Berici and Euganei Hills. After your ride, wander Vicenza’s beautiful squares and streets, known for their jewelry shops and rich history.
