Biking in the Vinschgau means pushing boundaries
Cycle paths, trails & bike park - here we come!
A perfect summer comes with a breeze. In the Oberer Vinschgau, one of the most diverse biking regions in the Alps, you can enjoy a breeze at every altitude. Whether leisurely along the historic Via Claudia Augusta following the Etsch river or sporty on winding high-alpine trails - in the Holiday region Reschensee lake, cycling fans of all fitness levels can get into gear.
The landscape ranging between valley basin, mid-altitudes and alpine pastures offers ideal conditions for beginners, families, pleasure cyclists and ambitious mountain bikers. Almost irresistible for technical riders: the 3-Länder Enduro Trails around the Reschenpass. 30 technically challenging yet rideable trails also for beginners guarantee variety, stunning views and a good dose of adrenaline. Thanks to the typically mild micro-climate, the biking season in the Oberer Vinschgau is exceptionally long.
You can explore everything on two wheels from April to November. The shady mountain ranges promise cool riding fun on hot summer days. The Sonnenberg is a real insider tip for bikers in the off-season. Consistently signposted routes, guided tours, bike rentals, and a bike shuttle service make your adventure perfect.
