Some cyclists like to take it easy in the days leading up to a big event, others like to go hard. Some like to ride with others, some like to go it alone.
CyclingHero enables flexibility and freedom to prepare as individually desired, with multiple ride options available each day of the trip. Our proprietary mobile application places detailed ride information and maps, along with points of interest, right at a cyclist's fingertips. Venture off on your own or ride with friends, all at whatever level you choose.
Relax, Recover, Recharge
There are few things more important before a big event than a good night's sleep and adequate rest. When you choose to experience the Maratona with CyclingHero, you'll enjoy the comfort and authenticity of smaller boutique properties that reflect the character of the region and cater specifically to cyclists.
Begin each day with a hearty breakfast, unwind in relaxing surroundings, and enjoy warm, friendly service. Our accommodations are situated in charming towns and villages offering plentiful meal options within a short walk. Our hotel in Cortina is a one minute walk to the main pedestrian street, the Corsa Italia. Our property in Corvara is in a prime location just across the street from the Maratona finish line.
