About HERO Dolomites

HERO Dolomites is one of the toughest and most fascinating mountain bike races in the world, an MTB marathon that winds its way around the Sellaronda circuit amidst the peaks of the Dolomites. Thousands of bikers from all over the planet compete on 60, 71, and 86-kilometer courses with challenging elevation gains, in a carbon-neutral certified event. The route also passes through Arabba, in the municipality of Livinallongo del Col di Lana, in the province of Belluno.

A Challenge Among the Dolomite Peaks

HERO Dolomites is considered one of the most demanding mountain bike granfondos in the world. The race unfolds on the Sellaronda circuit, passing through Alta Badia, Val di Fassa, and Fodom, and also crosses Arabba, a hamlet of the municipality of Livinallongo del Col di Lana in the province of Belluno, a key point for competitors' passage.

Three Routes for Every Biker

The event offers three distances, designed for athletes of different levels but always with a high technical standard:

  • 86 km — the long route, the toughest challenge
  • 71 km — the intermediate distance
  • 60 km — the shortest route, still selective

The routes feature climbs and single tracks amidst some of the most spectacular scenery of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
