From the Alps to Verona
SELF GUIDED BIKE HOLIDAY
From Bolzano to Verona, the safest and greenest bike path of the country
The Ciclopista del sole, the Sun Route (which in its full length goes from Brennero to Firenze) is already a classic: almost all flat with majestic mountains all around, safe and well signposted, with good bike grills where to enjoy a drink at open air tables and nice cities where to stop at. The path initially goes through a peculiar area of Italy: a region where the language, the history of the places, the typical recipes have a lot to do with the German tradition. Once you leave the mountains behind, no German language nor knödeln any more, but polenta and Valpolicella! Enjoy this easy itinerary with the satisfaction to reach by bike the nice cities of Bolzano, Trento, Rovereto and Verona.
- HIGHLIGHTS OF THE TOUR
- A safe bike path among the mountains
- Bolzano, Trento, Verona (UNESCO Heritage Site)
- Let yourself be surprised by the beauty of Lake Garda

Program

Arrival in Trento and check-in.
Overnight in Trento.
Catch a local train from Trento to Bolzano (about 45 minutes).
(Note: train ticket is not included in the price.)
Bolzano is the beginning of the cycling route: in fact, today you will cycle from Bolzano to Trento.
Bolzano is a city rich in history, influenced by Germanic culture and surrounded by the Alps. Take some time to visit Piazza Walther and the narrow central alleys, or visit the museum where the Otzi mummy is kept.
The bicycle itinerary goes South along the verdant Adige valley and crosses immense fields planted with honeycombs and vineyards, always on a flat bike path. Along the way, the village of Egna, an ancient market town with beautiful streets flanked by arcades, deserves a visit. Finally we arrive in Trento, a city where history and modernity coexist perfectly.
Second overnight in Trento.
Leave Trento and continue pedaling along the Adige river, in an area dotted with castles, towers and forts, such as the mighty Beseno Castle, which dominates the valley from the top of a hill. We recommend a small detour to visit the beautiful historic center of Rovereto, made up of narrow alleys permeated by a medieval atmosphere. The itinerary continues South, through the town of Ala, with its beautiful noble palaces, and finally arrives at the small village of Rivalta, the destination of the day.
Overnight in Rivalta.
The cycle path runs along the wildest stretch of the Val d’Adige. The valley becomes narrower, guarded by high mountains, the rarest towns and the valley floor covered with immense vineyards surrounded by woods. The route passes through the spectacular Chiusa dell’Adige, a canyon with high walls, and then leaves the cycle path and heads towards Lake Garda. In Bardolino we finally touch the blue waters of the lake, and finally we return to Verona following the Adige cycle path.
