Ride it in stages
Few riders hold 139 km on a trainer. Ride it a stage at a time: the cuts avoid the middle of the big climbs — a stage ends at a summit, in a valley or on the flat — and this page remembers what you have ridden and what comes next.
11 stages of about 12.6 km — none over 50 minutes at 165 W.

About Maratona dles Dolomites
The long course opens with the Sellaronda — Campolongo, Pordoi, Sella and Gardena in quick succession — and for many riders that alone would be a day out. Then it climbs the Campolongo a second time and heads south, away from the comfort of the loop.
The Passo Giau is what the Maratona is known for: close to ten kilometres at an average near ten per cent, arriving after a hundred kilometres of racing. The Falzarego and the short kick to the Valparola follow, and a wall in the village of La Villa is thrown in a few kilometres from the line.
Held on the first Sunday of July on closed roads; places are drawn by lottery. The organiser lists the long course at 138 km with 4,230 m of climbing.
Why ride this route indoors?
- The Giau on fresh legs and the Giau at kilometre one hundred are different climbs. You can only practise the second one by riding what comes before it.
- The course opens with the four passes of the Sellaronda — a natural place to stop on the days that are not for all seven.
- Entry is by lottery and the passes are under snow half the year; the course here is always available.
Good to know
+Is this the official course of Maratona dles Dolomites?
The track is based on the GPX published by Maratona dles Dolomites, normalised by Cycloscape for indoor riding. Cycloscape is not affiliated with the event’s organisers.
+What do I need to ride Maratona dles Dolomites indoors?
A smart trainer or a power meter, and a browser. Cycloscape connects over Bluetooth or ANT+ from the browser, sets the resistance of a smart trainer to the real gradient, and turns the route’s GPX into a 3D world. There is nothing to install.
+Can I ride Maratona dles Dolomites in stages?
Yes. Few riders want more than 50 minutes on a trainer in one go, so Cycloscape offers its 139 km in 11 stages of about 13 km, none longer than 50 minutes at 165 W. The cuts avoid the middle of the big climbs — a stage ends at a summit, in a valley or on the flat. Start from any stage and, if your legs are good at its finish line, keep pedalling: the ride carries on into the next stage and every stage you finish is ticked. The page remembers which stages you have ridden and which one is next.
+Is it free?
Yes. Riding it needs a free account — sign up in seconds with Google or a code by email, no card. Your result is saved and goes on the route’s leaderboard.
