With its varied landscape, the holiday region of Upper Venosta Valley offers numerous steep routes for mountain bikers and free riders alike. The
well-marked trails run along the valley high into the Alpine pastures, through forests and meadows, some continuing higher up into the mountains. The
single trails in the valley are suitable for
beginners, while other tours are considerably challenging, requiring
peak physical condition and
considerable experience.
The
twisting trails in the Upper Venosta Valley provide stunning
panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. The cycling season along the first-class MTB trails in the sunny Venosta Valley usually starts as from
early March until late November, due to the favourable microclimate.
Guided bike tours are also offered by the
South Tyrolean Bike Schools. The MTB routes are clearly marked and also feature on most
GPS electronic tracking systems.
