Begin at the Lana Tourist Information Office in Andreas Hofer Strasse and ride to Tribusplatz square. There turn left to Falschauer bridge. Follow the signposts to Merano (right) and cross the bridge over the MEBO expressway. Drive on the transregional cycle path towards Merano. In Sinigo follow the signposts for the Vinschgau Valley. After passing the racecourse in Merano turn right. Continue to follow the signs for Vinschgau. (Note: within Merano, the signage is green).

Ride along the right hand bank of the river Etsch to Lagundo. The climb to Tel begins at the swimming baths. At the start and end of the climb there are places to stop for a rest and a drink of water. At the end of the climb you will also be rewarded by a wonderful view. Continue to ride to Tel and cross the main road there, turn right and follow the cycle path to Naturno past the public playground.

Here cross the river and ride along the left bank after approx. 2 km to the Erlebnisbahnhof (adventure railway station) which is reached via the underpass. (Note: the adventure station is only open on Sundays from 2-6 pm from May to the end of October). The return journey is along the same route as far as Sinigo; from there continue towards Bolzano. Just after the exit for Lana, there is a restored locomotive to the right of the rest point that is well worth seeing. Your ride can be concluded with a visit to Lana open air pool.

Sights along the route: dam on the Tel, Prokulus Church in Naturno, Rablà railway museum.

From San Vigilio, you first cycle along the Strada al Plan Dessora and the Strada Ches Costes as well as past the water reservoir to Torpei. There, turn right and follow the forest path to Chi Vai. The route then continues to the hamlet of Val dla Tor, before reaching the group of houses in Costa bypassing the wooded hill to the right. In wide hairpin bends and with breathtaking views, the route then descends through the meadows to Ras and finally back to San Vigilio.

This variation of the bike path continues from Brunico in the direction of S. Lorenzo|St. Lorenzen to the former Roman road station, Mansio Sebatum. Excavations and a museum offer the opportunity to learn more about the Romans in the Pustertal. The route goes from San Lorenzo to San Vigilio or to San Martin – 23 or 24 km (14.5 or 15 miles).

A very varied cycling trip through the wonderful scenery of the Pustertal valley.

Characteristics: The bike tour takes you sometimes on asphalt tracks and sometimes on well-maintained gravel tracks across meadows and through woods on the left of the main Pustertal valley road to Brunico/Bruneck. You start at 1,175 m in San Candido/Innichen and end up at 800 m in Brunico. The difference in altitude of only 400 m is deceptive; there are some sections that are really tiring. However, most of the route is flat, and from Valdaora/Olang it is almost all downhill. Conveniently, you can put your bike on the train to return. For less experienced cyclists or for families with children, there is the option of travelling back by train from any of the villages on the way.

Starting points: San Candido/Innichen (35 km), Dobbiaco/Toblach (30 km), Villabassa/Niederdorf (27,5 km)

This tour is also suitable for e-bikes.

The Brenner Bike Route spans 96 kilometers through the Eisack Valley down to Bolzano. Enjoy gentle hills, charming villages, and cultural treasures along the way. Ideal for those who love to combine nature, culture, and active travel.

South Tyrol is a paradise for cyclists: well-developed bike paths, gentle hills, idyllic vineyards, and charming historic towns make every tour a unique experience. Five of Italy’s most beautiful villages, recognized as “Borghi più belli d’Italia”, are located in South Tyrol: Castelrotto, Egna, Glorenza, Chiusa, and Vipiteno.

This collection takes you on a cycling journey to these historic places, each full of winding alleys, centuries-old architecture, and a truly special atmosphere. The routes lead you along peaceful river valleys, through lush vineyards and orchards, and across rolling hills with stunning panoramic views. You’ll ride past ancient castles, under arcades, and over cobbled streets that whisper stories from the past.

The small squares and charming corners are just some of the highlights of these beautiful village centers. Whether you're an active cyclist or simply looking to relax and enjoy the landscape, these tours perfectly combine nature, culture, and pleasure. Hop on your bike, discover South Tyrol’s most beautiful borghi, and experience the region from a whole new perspective!

By the way: you can ride the full route as a multi-day tour, or explore each stage as a day trip – depending on how much time you have. The final stage of the multi-day route follows the same path back to Chiusa, allowing you to enjoy a complete cycling experience each day and explore all of the borghi equally. You’ll find tips for getting to each day tour in the individual descriptions.

The bike trail of Val Pusteria/Pustertal goes through grasses and fields and crosses in the first part some villages and the little city of Brunico/Bruneck. The good sun exposition makes it practicable also at the beginning of the season, the transport of bikes with the train of Val Pusteria/Pustertal makes independent from the car. The 70 km and the 300 m of altitude difference going out of the valley ask for a basic level of training condition. The trailway offers anyway the advantage of being able to interrupt the trail and cover the remaining part on the train. Also families with kids, in this way, run no risks.

We start this moderately difficult tour in Antholz-Mittertal and first cycle out of the valley to the historic bridge. From there, the route continues to Neunhäusern and from there onto the Pustertal Valley cycle path to Bruneck, where we then turn off into the Tauferer Ahrntal. On the way to our destination, we first cycle through the beautiful villages of St. Georgen, Gais and Uttenheim and the unspoilt nature in between. The trail continues towards Kematen and our destination at the Reinbach waterfalls, which can be explored on foot (approx. 20 minutes to walk to the waterfalls) and are the absolute highlight of this tour.

Starting from Neunhäusern, the Antholzertal Valley cycle path leads you into the valley to Antholz Mittertal. There is a lot to discover along this route, such as the Niederrasen leisure park, the Rasner Mösner biotope in Oberrasen, the MTB area and the fish pond in Antholz Niedertal as well as the sports area and playground in Antholz Mittertal. From Antholz Mittertal, you then switch from the cycle path to the road to cycle the last section up to Lake Antholz. Another highlight just before you reach the lake is the Biathlon Arena, where World Cup races are held every winter.

The Regglberg is a high-altitude plateau rising above the eastern shores of the Etsch / Adige River. If you choose to ascend from Leifers / Laives to Deutschnofen / Nova Ponente, you'll land in a landscape of alpine meadows. Here you'll find plenty of rest-stop options – too many, in fact, since you couldn't possibly stop for a break in every inn and cafe situated along this challenging and long tour.

This tour is challenging, but allows you to explore the east of the Etsch / Adige Valley, on the fringe of the foot of the Dolomites. The meadow landscape at the Regglberg between Deutschnofen and Aldein / Aldino resembles a verdant carpet stretching out in front of the impressive Latemar – from the perspective of Kaltern, the nearest outpost of the Dolomites, this most-prominent peak looms 2,842 meters above sea-level. But to approach it, you'll have to constantly pedal. The first milestone of your journey is the Mitterberg / Monte di Mezzo, accessible via the little Pass Road and the Kreither Saddle and then into the Etsch / Adige Valley. After a couple of relatively level kilometers, you'll reach Leifers / Laives, where the Branten Valley indicate the continued upward direction. At the upper end of the Branten Valley, you'll find the town of Deutschnofen / Nova Ponente perched on a high-altitude plateau. There is a path in the valley basin for your ascent, but the winding trails on the north flank of the valley offer more scenic beauty and are just as quick – besides giving you more panoramic views towards Deutschnofen. You will now proceed upwards into the rolling meadow landscape. You've mastered the steep uphill grade; now, it's a constant up and down. This route offers beauty and variety, and every couple of kilometers, you can take a rest-stop at one of the many charming inns and cafes along the way: the Laabalm, the Neuhütt-Alm, the Schmiederalm, or the Schönrast-Alm. In view of this wealth of options, you might be tempted to spend too much time here – but don't forget: The return leg is still ahead of you! The trail will first take you down into the Etsch Valley. But because the direct way from the Regglberg into the valley is possible only via very steep trails that are best traversed on foot, you'll have to instead take a slight diversion and follow the trail along the former Fleims / Fiemme Valley railroad, which displays a pleasant downhill grade at Montan / Montagna. And you'll be treated to spectacular scenery along the way: First, there's the unobstructed view of the valley, then the rolling terrain of the Castelfeder biotope with its mystical medieval cult site. Once you've arrived in Auer / Ora, you can traverse the Etsch River and quickly reach Lake Caldaro. On warm summer days, you could now take a pleasant dip at Klughammer. After a refreshing dip, you'll be ready to attack the final 200 meters of altitude differential from the lake up to Kaltern / Caldaro.

From Niederrasen, we first cycle along the cycle path out of the valley to the historic bridge. From there, we continue to Neunhäusern,, where we turn off onto the Pustertal cycle path. We then follow it until we reach Bruneck. After leaving the town behind us, we first reach St. Lorenzen. Here you will find the Mansio Sebatum Archaeological Museum, which is dedicated entirely to the Iron Age and especially the Roman period in the region. As the route continues, we pass the villages of Ehrenburg, Kiens, St. Sigmund and Vintl, each of which is always worth a detour in its own right, until we reach our destination in Mühlbach. For your return journey, you also have the possibility to take the train with bike transport back to Olang.

This easy and family-friendly tour runs on paved roads throughout and starts at the parish church in St. Vigil. From there, you first head to the valley station of the Miara ski lift.

A highlight for many visitors there is the church with its high Gothic tower, which is still a popular place of pilgrimage today. Before the return journey, you can enjoy food and drinks in the Ostaria Gran Ciasa, which is located opposite the church. Alternatively, there are numerous other places to stop for refreshments along the way back.

The medium-difficulty tour to Lake Prags runs mostly on paved cycle paths and wide gravel roads. Between the villages of Welsberg and Niederdorf, the path takes a turn into the Prags Valley. The route extends a few kilometres into the valley until you reach the village of Außerprags. Here the valley splits up in the direction of Plätzwiese or the famous Lake Prags. The ascent to the lake is not too difficult, only the last 3 kilometres are a little steeper and from St. Veit the route runs along the main road. Once there, the breathtaking panorama of the lake makes up for the previous exertions. If you still have some stamina left, you can explore the lake on a flat circular trail by foot.

This medium-difficulty tour begins in the Antholz Valley and leads along the Antholz Valley cycle path out of the valley, where you then cycle under the historic bridge, turn right and reach Neunhäusern.

As you ride along the path, you'll have the opportunity to stop in the charming villages of Ortisei and S. Cristina, where you can explore local shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions. The route is mostly asphalted and easy to navigate, making it suitable for cyclists of all skill levels.

The Rasner Möser biotope is located between Oberrasen and Antholz-Niedertal. This easy cycle tour, which is also suitable for children, can therefore be started from either of these two starting points. The highlight of this tour is definitely the biotope roughly halfway along the route.

The South Wine Route then runs about 40 km in a long circuit to Salorno / Salurn, the southernmost community of South Tyrol. Along the way, you'll pass through the charming wine villages of Tramin / Termeno, Kurtatsch / Cortaccia, Margreid / Magrè, and Kurtinig / Cortina all’Adige as you glide along the Wine Route.

The South of South Tyrol: Bicycle tour

This tour begins at the square in front of the large winery cooperatives (Kellerei Kaltern and Erste + Neue). From here, the bike trail will lead you through the vineyards and down to Lake Caldaro and past its eastern shore (by Klughammer) towards Auer / Ora. You'll pass the reeds and the biotope on the southern banks of the lake before the route enters the Auer-Tramin Bicycle Trail. There, it also bends into the South Wine Route. You can ride on it in either direction. In other words: There are two paths to the southernmost point in Salurn.

If you now take the right turn, you'll first proceed on the South Tyrolean Wine Route and enter into the historic wine village Tramin / Termeno. The Gewürztraminer variety of grape – which is indigenous to this locality and is used to make some of the finest wines available – is named after this village. The route continues to the south through the historical wine village of Kurtatsch / Cortaccia and past the famous "original grapevine" grafted here in the year in Margreid / Magrè. From here, you will proceed to Kurtinig – often referred to as "Little Venice" by the locals because it is flooded so often. It's only now that the route crosses the Etsch River. Salurn is located on its eastern side. You can take the short side-trip to the Haderburg – which was established here on a rocky prominence in the 11th century as a fortress.

On the return trip back to Kaltern, you will encounter the villages of Neumarkt / Egna and Auer / Ora on this side of the valley. In Neumarkt, you ought to visit the centuries-old and impressive leafy arcades in the center (which is closed to motor traffic). It's a wonderful opportunity to exit the hustle-and-bustle of modern times and immerse yourself in the Middle Ages. You can admire the handsome old manors, enjoy the coolness of the arcades, and explore the village's shopping options.

Farther to the north, the bicycle trail will take you past the Castelfeder biotope – an ancient cult site located on a wild, romantic hilly landscape abounding with fascinating geological formations and enormous boulders left behind by receding glaciers, and that has lost none of its magical appeal. If you wish, you can now pay a visit to Auer before continuing across the Etsch River to Lake Caldaro and up to Kaltern.

A fitting conclusion would be, e.g., a visit to the wine house at the starting-point / finish line of this tour. Or at the market square. The "Punkt" wine house there carries a wide assortment of wines from the Lake Caldaro area.

Variants: At Margreid / Magrè and Neumarkt / Egna, there are two additional bridges over the Etsch River which you can use as short-cuts. There is also rail service between Salorno / Salurn, Kurtinig / Cortina, Margreid, Neumarkt, and Auer – a great way to save yourself a few kilometers (www.suedtirolmobil.info).
