IN THE SADDLE OVERLOOKING THE SEA

Turquoise blue water, white beaches, high mountains and rugged cliffs: in Sardinia you cycle through impressive nature and on roads with little traffic. Especially in the east of this beautiful Mediterranean island, the Caribbean-looking bays along the coastal roads are almost unimaginably beautiful.

And here, in the province of Ogliastra – Italy’s least populated province – you will find Hotel La Torre – home base for a road biking vacation right by the sea. After exciting tours along the coast and inland through the Gennargentu Nature Park, or/and over the highest peaks of Sardinia, we stow our beloved road bike safely in the bike garage and swap our cycling clothes for swimming trunks. Relax by the pool or stare at the endless expanse of emerald green sea: relaxation after a day in the saddle is guaranteed here. The perfect end to a day of cycling awaits in the hotel’s own restaurant with traditional Sardinian recipes and a sunset dinner in the hotel’s bar. The perfect place to make plans for your next dream trip between the sea and the hinterland …

The last Grand Tour of the year is known for the many climbs that are tackled over three weeks. Steep slopes in particular color the route every year. Very steep, but usually not as long as in France or Italy. But that is not the case for the Pico de Veleta, because with almost 43 kilometers of climbing, it is one of the longest climbs in Europe.
