Sella Ronda Clockwise Part One

20.3km · 588m of climbing · filmed by Mikey Contributoray

Today we're heading off on the amazing and iconic Sella Ronda loop!

This ride is split into two parts. We're leaving very early in the morning to avoid the tourist traffic. The climbing starts straight away, but the views take a little longer to reveal themselves. When the Dolomites do come into view, it's an incredible sight that's worth the wait.

Once you've finished this ride, load up Part Two and complete the whole Sella Ronda!
