Cycling holidays in South Tyrol –

easy routes beneath magnificent peaks

An Inntravel cycling holiday in the Italian Alps is about more than the cycling. It’s easy-going and, what’s more, it’s a Slow holiday, so pause en route to take in the views of snow-capped peaks, or taste wine at a vineyard. There’s no luggage to weigh you down, and, with no group, it’s you who sets the pace. You can rely on us to select hotels of character and provide meticulously compiled route notes that guide you there, so unwind and enjoy…

The best cycling in the Italian Alps

The corner that we have chosen for our cycling holiday in the Italian Alps is the area north of Trento, where the jagged, lace-like peaks of the Dolomites line the horizon, and elegant towns nestle in the valleys, surrounded by vineyards and apple orchards.

Based in California, Phil has taken many trips with us over the years, and will be happy to give you general information about travelling to Europe and the overall Inntravel holiday experience from an American perspective.

Is our cycling holiday in South Tyrol right for you?

Given our focus on ‘amateur’ cyclists, we promise gentle cycling holidays in the Italian Alps – our routes follow designated, well-signed cycle tracks which stick largely to the valley floors while still commanding magnificent views. The definitions of our grades are given below. If you think you might need some help now and again, you could hire an electric (e-)bike. (Our grading system assumes you are using a ‘regular’ bike, so if you choose an e-bike, you'll find the cycling considerably easier.)

Grade 1

Easy cycling for all with shorter days mainly on the flat, but some gentle ascents.
Grade 1-2

Easy-to-moderate cycling featuring undulating routes with more frequent short ascents, and a mix of shorter and longer days.
Grade 2

Moderate cycling with some longer, steady uphill sections, and longer days.
Grade 2-3

Fairly strenuous cycling featuring longer days with some sustained climbs. (We don't currently have any holidays at this level.)
