Exploring nature by bike
Mountain bike holidays in the Alps
Blossoming apple orchards, lush forests, sunny alpine meadows, rugged high mountains and picture-perfect mountain passes: South Tyrol is a true paradise for cyclists, whether you prefer tarmac, gravel or off-road terrain. From flat cycle paths to steep mountain roads and thrilling trails, everything is here. If you haven’t brought your own bike, you can conveniently book one with us by the day before via your phone. Choose between a city bike, road bike, gravel bike, mountain bike or e-bike , and your bike will be delivered directly to our bike hotel near Merano and collected again afterwards. Depending on your mood, your day on two wheels might end in the wellness area or with a soothing yoga session - perfect for your Alps cycling holidays.
Those who enjoy mountain bike holidays in the Alps will find exciting and action-packed trails in the nearby Val d’Ultimo, on Merano 2000, on the Salto, in the Val Venosta or on Monte San Vigilio. More leisurely routes can be found along the valley floor: in the Val d’Adige between Bolzano and Merano as well as in the Val Venosta. And entirely new possibilities open up with an e-bike - routes that once seemed impossible suddenly become an adventure worth taking!
The classic routes around our bike hotel near Merano include the Passo della Mendola, Passo delle Palade, Passo di Monte Giovo, Passo del Rombo, tours into the Val d’Ultimo or Val Passiria, as well as the Passo dello Stelvio, which is closed to motorised traffic once a year for cycling day. If you’re in good shape, even a day trip to Lake Garda or into the Dolomites is well within reach. You can simply set off and explore at your own pace.
We are happy to assist with planning your mountain bike holidays in the Alps and provide maps. At the end of the day, you can store your bike in our secure bike room, where you’ll also find a compressor, tools and an e-charging station. Should anything more substantial be required, the professionals at the nearby bike shop will take care of it. Laundry service for your sportswear is available at an additional cost.
