Tour description
South Tyrol invites you to discover its beauty on two wheels. Riding along well-maintained cycle paths, you’ll experience the region’s unique character, traditions, and local flavors. The journey leads through unspoiled landscapes with rushing rivers, scenic lakes, and the dramatic backdrop of the mountains, all shaped by centuries of history and culture.
Along the way, you’ll enjoy the famous hospitality of South Tyrol, with its delicious cuisine and excellent wines. The route follows comfortable cycle paths from the eastern Puster Valley and the Dolomites to the regional capital of Bolzano, then continues to Lake Kaltern, the spa town of Merano, and into the picturesque Vinschgau Valley.
Route Overview
This is an easy and enjoyable tour suitable for most riders. In recent years, many valley cycle paths have been modernized or newly built, making the route comfortable and accessible. Although South Tyrol is known for its mountains, this itinerary mainly follows gentle valley paths with only small elevation changes. It is well suited for families with children aged 14 and above.

Riding along the Rienz River, you continue past the Olang dam and reach the historic town of Brunico.

Before returning to Bressanone, you can visit the Neustift Abbey and enjoy the town’s beautiful historic center.
Today you cycle along the Eisack Valley bike path, following the river through rolling vineyards known for their white wines. On the way, you pass the picturesque town of Chiusa, a perfect place for a short stop.
