Welcome to the spa town of Merano. This small, idyllic town, located on the Passer River and the banks of the Adige, boasts a mild, almost Mediterranean climate despite its alpine surroundings and is popular as a resort and for outdoor activities.

Whether it's the Sarntal Alps, the Dolomites, or the Mendel Ridge that point the way to the Adige Valley, the cycle path winds its way through the lush South Tyrolean lowlands, following the Adige River, slipping through the historically significant Salurn Pass, and continuing into the Trentino basin. The unspoiled villages in this northern Italian wine region invite you to end your day's cycling in a relaxed atmosphere.

The route continues downstream along the Adige River until the Doss Trento mountain range pushes its rocky flanks into the river. The old town of Trento, lying at its feet, awaits nature-loving cyclists with culinary specialties and a huge dose of culture. In the small town of Rovereto, Venetian history meets modern culture, and pretty squares surrounded by historic buildings invite you to linger and discover the city of arts.

The Adige Valley becomes increasingly charming. Although the flanks of the Lessini Mountains move closer again and narrow the traffic routes in the Adige Valley, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Valpolicella wine hills north of Verona from the hill near Rivoli Veronese. You roll energetically along the Adige canals into the much-vaunted and music-loving city of Verona.
