October 12, 2024,An der Rienz im Pustertal

Hey Komootler, the cycle path along the Rienz through the Pustertal was my destination today. A very interesting tour right next to the rushing Rienz. There were also two tunnels. Probably the old route of the Pustertal railway. On the way back I did a little exploratory tour of the cable cars, which are used by mountain bikers and paragliders.

Day 1 on the Drau Cycle Path has nothing to do with the Drau. First of all it goes up through the Pustertal - not evenly - in between there is also a few meters downhill again. Right at the beginning you can make a detour to Plan de Corones. A must in this weather. It's a good thing that …

A wonderful tour, only the lake itself disappointed us. A terrible hustle and bustle, completely overcrowded. Finally, the obligatory ice cream in Bruneck 🍦

July 14, 2023,Radtour von Toblach nach San Lorenzo

I got to know this beautiful bike tour along the Rienz the year before on the tour with GTLC60 from the Dolomites to Venice [komoot.de/collection/1119578]. Now I can repeat it with my current tour and life partner B.

We don't end the tour in Brunico either (very busy and not as picturesque as expected), but continue it another 5 kilometers …

July 27, 2022,Dolomiten-Venedig, Prolog 3: Radtour nach Bruneck

On the last day before the start of our bike tour from the Dolomites to Venice, we made an easy trip to Bruneck. Almost always along the Rienz, and almost always downhill. When Bruneck seemed too busy for the concluding coffee drink, we cycled on to the delightful town of S. Lorenzen. Here, a small marketplace with an attractive architectural …

June 27, 2025,An der Ahr Runde von Brunico Nord

Hey. Since I had to go to Bruneck for work, I packed my bike with me. It was a beautiful route, but also very steep hills. Normally, I can get 80-100km on my battery, but here the first battery died after about 45km 😞. It didn't matter, I had a spare with me. The trails and surroundings were amazing. The …
