Indi­vi­du­al arri­val in Nauders
Distanz: 0 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
You can expe­ri­ence the bor­der in a dou­ble sen­se on the day you arri­ve. Only about five kilo­me­ters lie bet­ween Nau­ders and the bor­ders to Ita­ly and Switz­er­land. In the sum­mer months in par­ti­cu­lar, the regi­on around the Reschen Pass offers count­less oppor­tu­ni­ties to expe­ri­ence the mild tem­pe­ra­tures with out­door acti­vi­ties and to make per­so­nal bor­der crossings. 
Nau­ders — Holi­day regi­on Reschen­see and Obervinschgau
Distanz: 35 km Höhe (+): 220m Höhe (-): 220m
From Nau­ders, you cycle to the Reschen Pass, the bor­der bet­ween Aus­tria and Ita­ly. Along Lake Reschen, with one of the most famous pho­to motifs in South Tyrol, the church tower of Alt­graun sur­roun­ded by water, you then cycle main­ly downhill to today’s stage desti­na­ti­on. Enjoy your first evening in South Tyrol in the nar­row alley­ways of your stage town. 
Vaca­ti­on regi­on Lake Resia and Upper Ven­os­ta Val­ley — Merano
Distanz: 65 km Höhe (+): 10m Höhe (-): 700m
Today you will cycle through the enti­re Vinsch­gau Val­ley — accom­pa­nied by the rus­hing of the Adi­ge River — and cycle downhill from Malles/Mals to Merano/Meran through the famous fruit-gro­wing are­as. First you reach Glorenza/Glurns, the smal­lest town in the Alps. Via the marb­le vil­la­ge of Lasa/Laas you then reach Naturno/Naturns and final­ly past the striking Castelbello/Kastelbell Cast­le to the spa town of Merano/Meran. Relax here on an evening stroll along the Pas­ser pro­me­na­de amidst a sub­tro­pi­cal world of plants.
Mer­ano adven­ture day
Distanz: 0 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
Rela­xa­ti­on is on the agen­da and Mer­ano offers some gre­at oppor­tu­ni­ties for this: a walk in the Rosen­gar­ten, a pan­o­r­amic tour of Dorf Tirol or per­haps a visit to the ther­mal baths? But if you don’t want to give your bike a rest, a trip to the Pas­sei­er Val­ley, the for­mer home of Tyro­lean free­dom figh­ter Andre­as Hofer, is the best way to do it. 
Mer­ano — Cas­tel­fe­der vaca­ti­on region
Distanz: 60 km Höhe (+): 398m Höhe (-): 483m
The­re is much to mar­vel at along this rou­te: the famous Schnat­terpeck altar in the church in Nie­der­la­na, the hig­hest church tower in South Tyrol in Ter­lan and num­e­rous cast­les and ruins on both sides of the val­ley. After the oppor­tu­ni­ty for a short detour to South Tyro­l’s capi­tal Bol­za­no, Lake Kal­tern offers a plea­sant oppor­tu­ni­ty to cool off any tired cycling legs. The stage finish is then the Cas­tel­fe­der vaca­ti­on regi­on with the towns of Ora, Mon­tan, Egna and Salor­no, whe­re the Ger­man-spea­king part of South Tyrol ends. 
Cas­tel­fe­der vaca­ti­on regi­on — Bolzano
Distanz: 30 km Höhe (+): 161m Höhe (-): 195m
Yes­ter­day you alre­a­dy cycled clo­se to Bol­za­no. Today, the rou­te takes you eit­her on a very direct rou­te along the Adi­ge river or as part of a short tour exten­si­on, inclu­ding a climb that still needs to be over­co­me, along the scenic rou­te along the Mon­ti­co­lo lakes to the cen­ter of Bol­za­no. Once the­re, we hope you enjoy explo­ring the bust­ling city or sim­ply rela­xing on Walt­her­platz square.
