Adige Cycle Path: Innsbruck - Verona

If you can enjoy the highlights of two countries at once during a cycle tour, then you've done everything right. The lively old town in Innsbruck, the episcopal city of Brixen, the Domplatz in Trento or the idyllic village of Auer - this tour simply has it all. On top of that, there are magnificent views, historic cycle paths, cultural insights and the wonderful culinary delights of Italy and Austria. Join us on this grandiose tour!

Let's start in the capital of Tyrol: Innsbruck offers numerous opportunities for a trip up the mountain before the cycling really begins. Via charming Sterzing you continue to Brixen and from there to Bolzano, where the historic Laubengasse invites you to take a stroll.

But you also save some energy for the stage on day 4, which ends with a glass of wine in the pretty village of Auer. On the way to Trento, enjoy the landscape lined with fruit trees and vines before finally reaching Verona via Rivalta. But before reaching your destination, be sure not to pass by two Trentino gems, the beautiful Rovereto and the magnificent velvet town of Ala.

Highlights

• The Golden Roof in Innsbruck: The famous landmark has now been shaping its home for over 500 years. You should not only look at the 2,657 fire-gilded copper shingles, but also at the places underneath - what is a bare bottom doing on the "Goldenes Dachl"?
• South Tyrolean wine and fruit: The mildly sunny yet windy climate makes all the difference - the fruit varieties of apple, pear and apricot thrive particularly well on the alpine southern slopes. But the wine is not to forgotten. Take time for a rest in this special region.
• Trento Domplatz: Watch the people strolling, marvel at the artistically painted houses and take a souvenir photo at the Neptune Fountain - the central square of the northern Italian city invites you to linger.
• Cycle around the Arena di Verona: Very few cities exude this much charm and romance, but Verona is one of them. You could certainly fall in love here every day! Why not pay a visit to Juliet's balcony and take a spin around the third largest amphitheatre still standing?

You will cycle on beautiful bike paths along the river valleys of Eisack and Adige. From Verona you will pedal mostly on side roads with little traffic. You will be taken up to the Brenner Pass from where the route will take you downhill 1,300 meters in altitude. There are only a few short climbs on Lake Caldaro and before Verona. This is a bike tour for everyone!
