An Italian Dream Bikepacking Trip | From The Dolomites To The Sea

Join GCN as we tackle the legendary Veneto Gravel, a massive 710km bikepacking route that showcases the best of Italy’s historic landscapes. From the foothills of the Dolomites to the wetlands of the Venice Lagoon, we push through thunderstorms and long days in the saddle to complete this beautiful loop in just three days. Along the way, we sample the region's finest fuel—including the original tiramisu—and put the new Orbea Terra and Tailfin luggage system to the ultimate test.
