For this Basso Experience we partnered with our dear friends and cycling enthusiasts: Hotel Melodia del Bosco. Located at 1315m above sea level in the very heart of the Alta Badia region, surrounded by the stunning Dolomites. With incredible views and stunning mountain scenery, it will take your breath away even before you start the first climb. Everyday will start with a buffet breakfast and some smooth tasting notes from our caffeine partner Faema coffee. Throughout the day we will experience authentic Italian cuisine and then relax in the evening with an aperol spritz.
