Bressanone - Based in one hotel 7-days

The cathedral city of Bressanone is the perfect starting point for your cycle tour through the valleys of South Tyrol. Scenic routes along the rivers Isarco and Rienz lead to cultural and natural highlights. The Dolomites seem to be really close, from your bike you will look up to their rugged, imposing peaks. The small town of Chiusa, with its narrow streets and romantic squares, spreads a medieval atmosphere - almost like it did in the distant past. You will visit the impressive Walther Square in Bolzano, with the statue of Walther von der Vogelweide and you will get a chance to enjoy a wonderfully creamy cappuccino in one of the cozy cafes. Every day you will discover and experience new things and at the same time you will enjoy returning to your comfortable hotel in the evenings.

Highlights:

• Bolzano: You cycle along an old railway line for about 45 kilometres from Brixen to Bolzano. The magnificent cycle path leads through the medieval town of Klausen. As the valley narrows, the vineyards get closer. Culture tip: Take a stroll in Bolzano. The Laubengasse, the Ötzimuseum and the Waltherplatz are definitely worth a visit.
• Vahrner See: The short stage (about 20km) to Lake Vahrner offers fantastic opportunities to enjoy the region. Take advantage of the Brixencard for a city tour, a cable car ride or hiking experiences. The best thing about it is that you can take a cooling dip in Lake Vahrner in between.
