Cycling

Explore the area riding on traffic-free, cycle paths along the River Etsch or old railway tracks, riding through vineyards and orchards as far as you can see, shady deciduous woodland, colourful meadows, and along the edge of bathing lakes.
The South Tyrolean Wine Road has it all - unlimited opportunity to enjoy nature on the saddle of your bike and a chance to get some exercise.
The majority of the villages in this apple and wine region lie in the Etsch Valley or on one of the rolling hills.
The area is therefore especially suitable for young and old, for the whole family.
Cycling is a particular experience in spring when the trees are all in blossom.
