Via Clau­dia Augus­ta — From Augs­burg to Bol­za­no: sporty

The cycle path leads through the local recrea­ti­on area of the Augs­burg Forest along the Lech river through the bota­ni­cal tre­asu­re tro­ve of the Lech­tal heaths to Schon­gau. The sil­hou­et­te of the Bava­ri­an Alps rises up in the distance, occa­sio­nal­ly shrou­ded in a deli­ca­te veil. Past the Lech Falls in Füs­sen, the cycle path fol­lows the Lech into the Tyro­lean Außer­fern. The veil falls and the rug­ged ele­gan­ce of the Lech­tal Alps and the Zug­spit­ze mas­sif flank the cycle path as far as the Erwal­der Becken, a pro­tec­ted moor­land area in who­se sub­soil parts of a Roman bea­ting road* of the Via Clau­dia Augus­ta have been pre­ser­ved. From Biber­wier, an orga­ni­zed trans­fer takes you to Fern­stein­see Cast­le and the cycle path takes you through the pic­tures­que Gur­gl­tal val­ley into the Upper Inn­tal val­ley to Lan­deck. A spor­ty, ser­pen­ti­ne ascent of approx. 700 meters in alti­tu­de awaits you bet­ween Pfunds and Nau­ders on the Reschen Pass. From Lake Reschen in South Tyrol, the Adi­ge cycle path leads along the playful river through the lush Vinsch­gau fruit-gro­wing land­scapes to the spa town of Mer­ano. Sou­thern flair is exu­ded by the viney­ards that nest­le in swee­ping lines around Lake Kal­tern and idyl­li­cal­ly embrace the bio­to­pe. In the lively tra­ding town of Bol­za­no, you can reflect on your cycle tour with a rela­xing chill-out ape­ri­tif in Piaz­za Walther.
