This was the last major day's stage of my 2025 tour.
From Schlanders, with pleasant temperatures and a tailwind, I rode through beautiful landscapes, always close to the Adige River. The climb to Lake Resia was well-frequented, as was the case at the lake.
The classic was a detour onto a single trail 8

The 850 meters of elevation gain to the Hofmahdsjoch were easily manageable at a steady pace in the morning. Then came the first, at 1,700 meters, from some tunnels. I knew that when planning, so I wore a high-visibility vest and lights. Especially in dim tunnel lighting, you rely on your own lights

Today was a bit tough, with 1,400 meters of elevation gain. The final climb in the afternoon at 4 p.m. was especially tough.
In the morning, the 16 km climb to Madonna di Campiglio was fine because it was still fresh and cool. On the descent, I actually wanted to take a single trail, but after yesterday

A very nice day's stage, starting at 9 degrees Celsius and finishing at 28 degrees Celsius. Unfortunately, I started on a mountain bike route, which was a bit tricky with the luggage. The absolute highlight was the ride through the Sarca Gorge. (Photos 7, 8, 9)

Yesterday I took the train from Bregenz to Bolzano. Today marks the start of a multi-day tour through the Italian Alps. In the Adige Valley, I'm always following the Adige River.
The last few kilometers before Trento are also along the highway.
Unfortunately, a thunderstorm was forecast for 3:00 p.m

Last day of a beautiful round trip. Today, with less elevation gain, it's not as challenging. The descent from Oberjoch takes a car-free, old pass road, with hot brake discs.

A beautiful tour through the Allgäu region and the hinterland of Lake Constance. The section from Hanover to Bodnegg is particularly recommended.
