Tre Cime di Lavaredo from Cortina d'Ampezzo (Italy) - Indoor Cycling Training

Tre Cime di Lavaredo (The Three Peaks of Lavaredo) is one of the most well-known mountain groups in the Alps. The ride to the foot of Tre Cime di Lavaredo has been immortalized by the Giro d’Italia. It is an epic battleground for world-class riders located amidst some of the most beautiful mountains in the world. The gradients vary a lot on this ride. You will find step uphill sections, but also downhill segments, where your legs can rest. You pass several mountain lakes on your way, including the enchanting Lake Misurina. The ride starts in Cortina d'Ampezzo, a winter paradise that has hosted the Olympic Winter Games in 1956 and will host it again in 2026. From Cortina to the first top, you have a nice long ascent. It is not an easy climb, but your hard work will be rewarded with a nice descent where your legs can rest. You need that rest because the hardest part of the ride is still to come. From Lake Misurina, things get nasty, and once you pass the cue of cars at the toll booth, you will thank yourself if you spare some energy. The ride ends at the foot of Tre Cime di Lavaredo. If one does not have the legs to complete the entire ride, one could consider only doing the last segment from Lake Misurina.

Just add music:
Most cyclists would agree that the ride to Col du Tourmalet is outstanding. But when it comes to music, opinions are very mixed. This is why we haven’t added music and why we recommend adding your favorite music to the ride. It is quite simple. Mute YouTube and open a browser window. Find a site that offers music (Spotify, YouTube, etc…) and pick the music you like, and enjoy the ride... The original sound of the ride has been left out. This is because that the natural sound of the surroundings is drowned by noise from passing cars, vibrations from the road, wind, and the rider's breathing.
