Itinerary
- Day 1
Merano
You're starting in Merano, a spa town that sits between the Passer and Adige rivers. What's interesting about this place is that despite being in the Alps, it has this mild, almost Mediterranean feel to it. The town works well as a base whether you're looking to unwind or get out for outdoor activities. The climate here is pretty comfortable, so you'll have good conditions for exploring.

Merano to Trentino
Today you'll cycle through South Tyrol following the Adige River. The route takes you through the Sarntal Alps, then the Dolomites, and across the Mendelkamm ridge. You'll pass by the historic Salurner Klause before heading down into the Trentino basin. Along the way, small villages pop up throughout the Upper Italian wine region where you can stop and rest. It's a solid day of riding with varied terrain and nice scenery around you.

Trentino to Riva del Garda
Cycling continues south toward Trento. When you get there, you'll see Doss Trento, a wooded hill with old fortifications that rise up above the town's historic center. Trento itself is worth checking out because it mixes nature and culture pretty well. From there, the ride heads south through the Adige Valley. There's a gentle climb to Passo San Giovanni, then you descend to a deep mountain lake where you'll finish the day. The descent down gives you some nice views.

Riva del Garda
Your last day is at Lake Garda. The morning's relaxed, so you can take time to wander around Riva del Garda or try other outdoor activities on the lake if you want. It's an alpine lake that has a lot to offer, so you've got options for how to spend your time before heading out.
