By bike across the Alps to Lake Garda
A week full of movement, nature experiences, and cultural discoveries awaits the participants of the active pleasure tour from Rosenheim to Lazise. The journey, covering approximately 400 kilometers, is powered by one's own muscle strength over the Brenner, through Tyrol and South Tyrol to Lake Garda. Five active cycling days combine sporting challenges with pleasurable breaks and a relaxing time in Lazise.
From the Bavarian foothills to Mediterranean Italy
The multi-day tour starts on Sunday, September 27, 2026, at 9:00 AM in Rosenheim. Along the Inn River, it goes through varied landscapes and historical places towards Tyrol. Kufstein with its distinctive fortress, Rattenberg with its medieval old town, and the silver town of Schwaz are impressive stops on the way south.
Mountain passes, river valleys, and great views
The route requires endurance and rewards with stunning panoramas. The path goes over the Wipptal to the Brenner Pass at approximately 1,370 meters elevation. After crossing the Alps, the landscape noticeably changes: the routes lead through Sterzing, Brixen, and Klausen to Bolzano. Vineyards, apple orchards, and the mild climate of the Eisacktal and Etsch valleys accompany the ride.
Historic cities and Italian lifestyle
With Trento, the cycling journey reaches a historically significant city with fresco-decorated palaces and lively squares. Through Rovereto and a final ascent at Rivoli, it finally heads to Lazise on Lake Garda. The car-free medieval old town, the crenellated city wall, the harbor basin, and the lake promenade create a charming conclusion to the discovery experience.
Active relaxation with time to enjoy
The tour combines sporty cycling with cultural enrichment and conscious relaxation breaks. Photo stops, snack breaks, and views of the mountain world are all part of the concept, as is the shared experience of the different cultures of Bavaria, Tyrol, South Tyrol, and Italy. The route mainly runs on paved paths and covers approximately 410 kilometers and about 2,500 vertical meters according to the published tour data.
Conclusion: A special crossing of the Alps on two wheels
Cycling through four cultural regions, experience the Alps under your own power, and reach Lazise with the good feeling of having completed the journey together. The sporty pleasure tour is suitable for experienced cyclists with endurance and enjoyment of longer stages. Secure your place and discover the route from Rosenheim to Lake Garda as an unforgettable cycling trip.
