The bike tour from Egna to Castelrotto offers fantastic views and a truly unique experience of South Tyrol’s landscape. From Egna, you’ll cycle along the scenic South Tyrolean Wine Road. Your destination, Castelrotto, is a charming village nestled at the foot of the Dolomites. Its historic center, with narrow alleyways and a striking church tower, invites you to soak in the local atmosphere. From here, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding Dolomites – well worth every bit of effort along the way.
The starting point is easily accessible by train, and bikes are allowed on board. Unfortunately, buses do not transport bicycles. We recommend continuing from Castelrotto to Ponte Gardena (see Castelrotto–Vipiteno tour) to catch the train back from there.
