Details about the Brixen tour based in one hotel

The perfect starting point for your cycling tours is the cathedral city of Brixen. From here you cycle to your heart’s content through the surrounding valleys. The special thing about it: the order is variable. You can decide for yourself which valley to explore on the bike on which day. At the end of the day, you always come back to your starting point of Brixen.

Relaxation? Anyone who loves to rest after cycling can look forward to it. Treat yourself to a break and let the relaxation run wild. Foodies take note! In South Tyrol the culinary arts are very important. Indulge in regional delicacies and indulge in Italian cuisine!

A very special highlight in South Tyrol is the wine: From sweet white wines to strong red wines, you can find it all on the South Tyrolean Wine Route. Tip: Taste the fine wines and enjoy ‘La Dolce Vita’ in South Tyrol.

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.
