Bolzano to Verona 7-day Cycling Tour Level 2
Along the Adige River to Romeo and Juliette
Nature or culture? How about the perfect combination of both? This bike tour from the capital of South Tyrol to the festival city of Verona takes you on a predominantly flat route along the Adige through fertile orchards and past a unique mountain scenery to cities of timeless culture. Immerse yourself in an icy world that existed 5000 years ago in the “Ötzi” museum in Bolzano. Admire frescoes from the 13th to the 15th century in the cathedral in Trento. And start dreaming in the city where one of the most beautiful and yet tragic love stories of the world takes place: in Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliet.
You will cycle mainly on flat routes. There are some short climbs on the cycle path to Eppan and Lake Garda.. You will find yourself on beautiful bike paths and country lanes. Unfortunately, moderate traffic is unavoidable on some short connecting roads.
If you would like to rent a bike (85 EUR) or e-bike (189 EUR), please contact our office when booking: [email protected]
