(Vermont Bicycle Touring (VBT) Air Package included, per person, double occupancy)
VBT's Valleys of the Dolomites Join the Pentagon Ski Club on a Vermont Bicycle Touring (VBT) trip to South Tyrol - a marriage of Italian and German culture - that makes the Dolomites very unique. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Dolomites are primarily composed of dolomitic rock, a type of limestone, which gives them their characteristic pale color. Bike with us under these renowned vertical peaks, spires, and towers, and along mountain lakes and river valleys, all sculptured over millions of years, creating a backdrop of breathtaking and awe-inspiring landscapes. This region is also home to unique cultural traditions, including the Ladin language and culture (found in the central part of the Dolomites). Our guides will introduce us to the fusion of cultures in South Tyrol, including its famous blend of Italian and Austrian cuisine. You've skied the area in winter, now come bike it in summer!
