Cross the Alps by bike or mountain bike — an experience on fantastic cycle paths of a special kind. High alpine landscapes and unforgettable panoramas await you on your varied stages and great hotels in the evening. Whether sporty or comfortable — in addition to the natural beauty, enjoyment should not be neglected. Look forward to easy to challenging routes, along beautiful lakeshores, up the mountains and over the Alps. These beautiful Transalp tours take you through 3 countries and along part of the Alpe-Adria-Trail. In total, the Alpe-Adria-Trail is 750 km long and goes from Großglockne via Slovenia to Muggia in Friuli-Venezia Giulia.
Our individual tours are designed for enjoyment, comfort and light-heartedness and are designed for trekking or e‑bike cyclists. Our overall portfolio also includes tours for road or gravel bikes(www.feuer-eis-touristik.de/radreisen); for special mountain bike offers such as Alpine cross or downhill, we recommend other providers. General information on the difficulty level classification of our tours can be found here.
Transalp is the opportunity to cross the Alps by bike on several hundred routes and variants — from sporty and challenging to comfortable. Some sections (e.g. Innsbruck-Brenner) can also be shortened by train. Other routes run along old railroad lines, for example, and are easy to manage. In our travel descriptions, the various Transalp routes are described with the daily stages and level of difficulty. Varied with the bike.
We prefer to relax on vacation. Sporting performance is not the main focus of our tours. No, cycle as comfortably as your constitution allows and enjoy the scenery. Dismount if necessary and simply push your bike up one or two climbs if you start to sweat. Anyone who only has their eyes on the speedometer or GPS during the route across the Alps will miss out on magical landscapes and unique views. Enjoy the routes and relax at your own pace. Ride your own bike, road bike or mountain bike, or hire a suitable bike.
We offer both mountain bike tours and tours that can be ridden on a “normal” touring bike. If you don’t want to do the Trans-Alp tour on your own bike, that’s no problem. You are welcome to book a rental bike with us as an additional service. In addition to bikes with 7‑speed gears (also with back-pedal brakes on request), mountain bikes and e‑bikes can also be hired. Of course, we also take care of the return transportation of the bikes. All you have to do when you arrive at the starting point is get on your bike and set off.
Feuer und Eis provides you with a comprehensive information package with maps and tour descriptions. You can download the GPS data separately from the Internet. Our recommendation for your packing list:
