By bike through South Tyrol

On around 4600 kilometers, South Tyrol offers an excellently developed network of cycle paths, which has something to offer for all levels of difficulty.

Cyclists are particularly drawn to the valley locations of the Merano region or to the south of South Tyrol, while more experienced bikers prefer the spectacular trails and the numerous mountain passes. The irrigation channel paths in the Vinschgau or the area around Rosengarten Latemar are also very popular, where even beginners can fully enjoy themselves. But the conditions are also optimal for road cyclists: riders in this area will find a wide selection of panoramic tours, with the highlights of the region being the Karerpass, the Nigerpass, and the Lavazépass. Those who are not so fit can use public transport or a bike taxi to save some altitude meters.

Many hotels in South Tyrol specialize in bikers and cyclists and offer various packages around cycling. These accommodations have certified bike guides who conduct guided tours with guests or assist them in planning their tours. In addition, bikers also have a repair service available or can rent bikes at the hotel. After a joint tour, all participants can also meet for coffee and cake or a snack to share experiences and make new friendships.

Family Bike Days

There are also special offers for families who enjoy cycling. In addition to guided family bike tours, both adults and children can participate in a joint driving technique training, and a special bike program for children is also offered.

Cooking & Biking

A very special offer is the combination of cycling and cooking. After the tours, cooking courses are held where participants can learn about South Tyrolean cuisine. In a playful manner, they create excellent dishes such as cheese dumplings, pressed dumplings, or apple fritters, which can then be immediately tasted with a cozy glass of wine.
