Mountain bike lovers also won’t be disappointed in the Dolomites: a large number of bike paths and itineraries will guide them to the most remote corners of Alta Val Pusteria.
There is also lots to do as far as bike riding is concerned. Those who love biking while admiring the scenery can ride through Val Pusteria from San Candido to Brunico: this famous bike path is truly beautiful. It is particularly fun to rent a bike, take a ride and then return by train. In July, those who prefer to watch outdoor sports activities, can attend a must event, the high point of the region’s biking season: the “Dolomiti Superbike”.
Those who want to experience the Alpine landscape of the Dolomites at night can take part – in San Candido or in Dobbiaco – in a guided night-time excursion and sleep under the stars. As you can tell, there is really something for everyone in South Tyrol ! The Dolomites and the Gratschwirt Hotel are waiting for you!
