Newburyport MA, March 16, 2015 — ItaliaOutdoors Food and Wine (www.italiaoutdoorsfoodandwine.com) offers Dolomites bike tours. Located in Northeastern Italy, in the Trentino-Alto Adige next to the Austrian border, the mountainous terrain has many long, uphill passes that serve as a real challenge to even expert cyclists. Fortunately, other parts of the region have level terrain which allow Dolomites bike tours of varying cycling abilities.

“Our Dolomite cycling tours wouldn’t be complete without experiencing the many wonderful wines and dining options of the region,” said Kathy Bechtel, co-owner, biker, hiker and Culinary Director. “Lively cities like Trento and Bolzano offer shopping, museums and many cultural venues.”

The city of Verona is filled with historic architecture, a Roman Arena and Juliet’s balcony made famous in Shakespeare’s play. A UNESCO world heritage site famed for breathtaking scenery, spectacular views, and incredible peaks and gorges, the dolomite mountains combine Italian, Germanic and Austrian cultures into a panorama of sites, sounds and culinary experiences that are sure to impress. Tour guide Vernon McClure makes the Dolomites bike tours especially memorable, drawing on more than 20 years of cycling in the region.
