From the banks of the river Isar to the gates of the Serenissima

Difficulty Level:
Duration: 9 days
Distance: 700 - 700 km
Landscape:

The starting point for this sporty cycle tour is the Bavarian capital Munich. The tour heads following cycle paths and quiet side roads over the Alps, visiting three different countries as you go – Germany, Austria & Italy and is ending at the lagoon city Venice.

The tour leads to the Bavarian`s lake scenery, passing some well-known lakes, like Starnberger-, Tegern-, or Schliersee over the border to lake Achensee. They are perfect for a jump into the refreshing water after a long cycling day. Traveling along the Tyrolean Inntal the road bikers reach Innsbruck and get over the Brennero pass to South Tyrol. At the bottom of the breathtaking summits of the Dolomites – taking part of the UNESCO world natural heritage – you cycle towards the Adriatic coastline.
The road bike tour from Munich to Venice is a highly varied tour for sporty-racing bikers with a good physical preparation. The route runs along asphalted cycle paths and quiet side roads. From the foothills of the Alps over the Brennero pass and the Dolomites a few ascents need to be conquered. The last part of the journey runs through the Italian lowland.
