Pedalling dreams in the Dolomites

A bike tour from Olang to Lake Braies is a real highlight for nature lovers and cycling enthusiasts. The route leads through the picturesque landscape of the Dolomites and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.

The route is about 20 kilometres long and requires a medium level of fitness, as it also includes some ascents. There are numerous opportunities to take a break and enjoy nature along the way. The section beside the river is particularly attractive, where the babbling of the water provides a calming backdrop.

Lake Braies itself, often referred to as the ‘Pearl of the Dolomites’, is the crowning glory of the tour. This lake is famous for its intense turquoise-coloured water and the dramatic mountain backdrop reflected in the clear water. Once you reach your destination, you can relax on the lakeside, hike around the lake or stop off at one of the local restaurants to enjoy traditional South Tyrolean dishes.

In summer, we recommend starting early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid the crowds as much as possible.
