Motorcycle routes in Dolomites and Italian Alps 🇮🇹

10 routes available

The Dolomites and the Italian Alps are the supreme paradise of European motorcycling. Legendary passes such as the Stelvio, the Gavia and the Sella Ronda deliver the most spectacular mountain roads on the continent, set among UNESCO-listed dolomite spires and served by first-rate tourist infrastructure.

High-mountain passes with tight bends and extreme elevation changes. Excellent tarmac on the main roads, variable on the minor ones. Heavy summer traffic on the famous passes. Season: June to September, as the high passes close for snow the rest of the year.
