This impressive bike route leads along the Adige Cycle Path from Auer through the South Tyrolean lowlands to Lake Garda. Over about 90 kilometers, the path follows the river course of the Adige through sunny orchards, vast vineyards, and historic towns such as Trento and Rovereto. Lake Garda welcomes you at the end with mild climate, Mediterranean vegetation, and a stunning view – a perfect blend of sporting activity and natural experience.

Track types
Show elevation profileSafety information
The Adige Cycle Path is largely flat and well secured; however, it is important to wear a helmet, obey traffic rules, and be attentive at intersections. The climb to the San Giovanni Pass requires some fitness. When temperatures are high, start early and take enough water with you.Public transport
For the return journey from Rovereto, regular regional trains are available that also carry bicycles. Bicycle transport is possible for an additional fee – however, depending on the time of day and space limited. With the South Tyrol South Card, you can travel free of charge by bus and train (the bike ticket must be purchased separately).

Auer is easily accessible by car via the Brenner motorway A22 (Neumarkt/Auer exit). Those who prefer environmentally friendly travel take the regional train – Auer lies on the railway line between Bolzano and Trento. The Adige Cycle Path runs directly on the outskirts of town.Parking
