  • Campitello – 5 Day Ski Itinerary
    Campitello – 5 Day Ski Itinerary Easy Medium Hard Day 1: The Local Fields - Grade: From either Campitello or Canazei ski lifts explore the local ski areas of Col Rodella (Campitello) and Belvedere (Canazei). Both fields offer intermediate terrain with a few steep sections that are easy to see. There are some wonderful long runs with the best being the run to the valley from the cable car at Col Rodella. You can ski to the village of Canazei from both fields. If you want to follow the sun, it is best to ski Col Rodella in the morning and Belvedere in the afternoon. Both ski areas are connected by a telecabine (lift numbers 155 and 105) and so access is easy. Highlights The skiing: From Belvedere make sure you ski down to the Pordoi pass and take the lift to Sass Pordoi for a spectacular view of the dolomites. Sass Pordoi featured in the film Cliff Hanger. You should not ski down from here – all of the runs from the top are off piste, unpatrolled and extremely dangerous. Take the cable car back down and ski. Eating: There are a number of great places to eat on the mountain. Our favourites are Tita Piaz and Ciampolin at Belvedere and Rifugio Des Alpes and Salei on Col Rodella. Stop before 1pm to beat the crowds – Italians religiously stop for lunch at this time. Apres Ski: The round bar at Des Alpes in the afternoon. If you're skiing back to Canazei, make sure you leave before the slopes close. Day 2: Ski Val Gardena - Grade: Val Gardena – the home of the world cup downhill piste is also an easy first tour from the Fassa Valley.

  • The Grand Tour
    The Grand Tour IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT EPIC ROADS... March 26th - 28th, 2021 IT’S AN EXTRAORDINARY CULINARY EXPERIENCE for the most demanding gourmets NORBERT NIEDERKOFLER St. Hubertus With 3 Michelin stars, the St. Hubertus Restaurant is the pride of the Hotel & Spa Rosa Alpina. With only 11 tables, it is as exclusive as it is elegant. It was born in 1996 and owes its name to the Saint protector of hunters. The dining experience is best summed up in the words of chef Norbert Niederkofler: “The variety comes from mixing simplicity. The best product is the basic assumption. I put my effort in respecting the product and enhance it using the right cooking method. The result must be “visible” both in the taste and in its aesthetic, it must be delicate and simple but still surprising. The lightness can be seen and tasted”. Photo of Norbert and Luigi prior to Covid19 PAOLO DONEI Malga Panna The chef Paolo Donei was awarded with a Michelin star when he was only 19 years old and has maintained it for over 20 years thanks to his authentic cooking, that respects the traditions of Trentino and the nature surrounding the Malga Panna restaurant. RENZO DAL FARRA Locanda San Lorenzo The restaurant’s history goes back to January 7th, 1900 from a very passionate family. Here chef Renzo Dal Farra gets everybody excited with a very traditional cuisine made of local products but still very contemporary.

  • 2021 Giro Virtuale Ride Report 210602
    Giro d’Italia Virtuale 2021 had not given much thought to a 2021 Giro d’Italia Virtuale until I was contacted out of the blue via LinkedIn the week before the real Giro I started. “Are you the Pike Talbert who created the Fulgaz Giro d'Italia Virtuale last year at https://fulgaz.com/my-giro-ditalia-virtuale-pike- talbert?” his note began. “If so, I'm wondering if you were going to curate a version 2.0 for the 2021 Giro?” That was all the inspiration I needed! A week later: Tahdah! An initial draft was complete: 21 stages utilising 20 FulGaz rides, 14 of which were new this year—either recently released by FulGaz, or recently discovered by moi. Several iterations later the final version was complete. The Table below provides a comparative Summary. A couple of background comments are worth highlighting: • My Giro last year was mostly about climbing as many of the famous and iconic mountain passes as possible. I have discovered the hard way that this is actually boring (not to mention painful). It turns out that flatter, rolling stages usually contain better scenery—a “smell the roses” approach that favours vistas and seeing more of Italy’s natural beauty over elevation gain and degree of difficulty. Thus, I have inserted more flatter and rolling stages. • Most of the rides I have eliminated in favour of the new ones are longer climbs (i.e., greater than 90 minutes based on videographer time and 3 of the 4 Stelvio-related ascents). It is for this reason that the total time is nearly an hour less than last year.

  • South Tyrol: a Cyclists' Mecca
    Press Release IDM Südtirol – Alto Adige South Tyrol: A Cyclists’ Mecca In 2019, the “Tour of the Alps” will once again cast cycling in South Tyrol into the spotlight. South Tyroleans love cycling, and what’s more: They also set new benchmarks through their environmental awareness. For the third time already, the Tour of the Alps 2019 will lead professional cyclists across five stages and through three states of the European region Tyrol–South Tyrol–Trentino. This time around, the Tour of the Alps will take place from 22 to 26 April. Three stages—on 23 and 24 April and the final stage on 26 April—will take the professional cyclists through South Tyrol. But pros are not the only ones pedalling hard in our part of the world: Bozen/Bolzano is a genuine cycling capital, because nearly one in three people cycle on a daily basis. There are projects in place all over South Tyrol which aim to popularise bicycles as a means of transportation and integral part of everyday mobility. Here, cycling is the people’s sport, which is promoted with a range of offers and campaigns. “South Tyrol cycles”, for instance, is a project by Green Mobility South Tyrol (hiips://www.greenmobility.bz.it/en/ ). In 2018, almost 4,000 cyclists participated: The total distance covered by them on their way to work or to school amounted to a whopping 3.2 million km! Plenty of cycling is not only good for the body, but also for the environment. All that cycling prevented approx. 300 tonnes of carbon dioxide from being emitted into South Tyrol’s atmosphere (hiips://www.su edtirol-rad.com).

  • Dolomites Italy
    Overseas Dolomites August 31 meet Italy September 14 The Dolomites in northern Italy are undoubtedly one of the most beautiful mountain groups in the world and the seventy-odd via ferrata climbing routes mostly put up during the First World War conflict are an added attraction. The first two weeks of September were selected for the meet as the Italian holidays are over, but the lift systems and huts are still open. The leader had been to the Dolomites over half a dozen times before, and hired a large comfortable self-catering chalet in Arabba, a centrally located village which offered good access to seven different mountain groups. As a venue for a meet, the spires, peaks, ridges and valleys of the Dolomites offer plenty of scope for a wide range of activities: walks, mountain biking, via ferrata climbing routes, scrambling and both sport and traditional rock climbing. The lift infrastructure makes using a valley base compatible with reaching most routes and summits without resorting to nights in refuges. This made for a relaxed and sociable meet with shared catering and nightly opportunities to share experiences and plan outings. The two-week trip gave those members only able to manage a week some flexibility with dates while those with more time found no difficulty in finding interesting routes to fill every day. The weather was mostly good but with a couple of wet days when waterfalls and salamanders became the main attractions. At the start of the second week, precipitation plastered the mountains with snow down to below pass level creating new challenges for the next few days but enhancing the mountain views.

  • The Dolomites the World Natural Heritage List Unesco
    THE DOLOMITES THE WORLD NATURAL HERITAGE LIST UNESCO Nomination of the Dolomites for inscription on the World Natural Heritage List UNESCO Odle / Geisler O the mind, mind has mountains; cliffs of fall Frightful, sheer, no-manfathomed. Hold them cheap May who ne’er hung there 2 G.M. Hopkins (1844 - 1889) Nomination of the Dolomites for inscription on the World Natural Heritage List UNESCO THE TENTATIVE LIST AND THE NOMINATION OF THE DOLOMITES This Nomination Document is the answer to the Decision to defer the previous nomination of the Dolomites (2005) expressed by the World Heritage Commit- tee during the Thirty-first Session Christchurch, New Zealand (23 June – 2 July 2007). In detail, the World Heritage Committee having examined Documents WHC-07/31. COM/8B and WHC-07/31.COM/INF.8B.2, defers the examination of the nomina- tion of The Dolomites, Italy, to the World Heritage List on the basis of criteria (vii) and (viii). As outlined in the document licensed by the Word Heritage Committee at the end of the 29th session held in Durban, South Africa, in July 2005, Italy has proposed the Dolomites as one of the sites deserving consideration for a possible future nomination as a site of outstanding universal value. The request was included in annex 1 of the Tentative List dated march 31st 2005, whereas the denomination ‘Dolomites’ is defined in annex 2 “Tentative List Sub- mission in accordance with decision 27 Com 8a” and annex 3 (Properties ac- cepted as meeting the requirements for Tentative List), within the scope of the broader denomination ‘Alps’, which also includes a) Western Alps and c) Eastern Alps, under the category ‘Natural Sites’.
