Self-guided 8-day Cycling Tour Innsbruck to Lake Garda (Level 2)
Say ‘ciao bella’ to an amazing eight day cycle tour! From Innsbruck you cycle comfortably to the largest lake in Italy – Lake Garda. Imposing mountain ranges, spectacular panoramic views and a culinary tour through the vineyards and orchards of South Tyrol. This is a cycle tour in the Mediterranean, which leaves nothing to be desired.
You’ll ride along beautifully maintained cycle paths through the river valleys of the Inn and Adige. For much of the route, quiet roads weave through orchards and vineyards, keeping you far from traffic. A shuttle takes you from the Inn Valley up to the Reschen Pass—followed by an exhilarating descent of 1,200 meters (almost 4,000 feet). Along the way, a few short climbs add just the right touch of challenge.
