Objevte jedinečný charakter jihotyrolského údolí Wipptal s malebným Sterzingem/Vipitenem, nejsevernějším městem Jižního Tyrolska. Boční údolí Alp nabízejí impozantní horské vrcholy a vášnivou sportovní kulturu. Cestou poznávejte a setkávejte se s krásnými hrady.
Starting from the north of the country, the cycle route gently descends along the railway line in winding curves, leading you to Colle Isarco (Gossensass) and then on to Vipiteno (Sterzing). Shortly after leaving the Brenner Pass, you can enjoy your first Italian cappuccino in a charming cultural gem along the way.
The route then takes you straight into the heart of the Fugger town of Vipiteno – simply ride through the open arch of the iconic Zwölferturm (Tower of the Twelve). From there, the path continues over flat and slightly uphill sections, passing through villages and hamlets until you reach the impressive Franzensfeste Fortress. A stop here is highly recommended to explore the exhibition rooms of this historical structure, originally built for war but never actually used in combat.
The cycle path then takes you past the Vahrn Lake before arriving in the medieval bishop's town of Brixen. There, you can reflect on your tour with a glass of wine, stroll beneath the arcades, explore local culture, or head straight back into the peaceful natural surroundings.
And if your legs are running out of motivation, don’t worry – the train offers a comfortable way back to your starting point.
