The Ciclopista del sole, the Sun Route (which in its full length goes from Brennero to Firenze) is already a classic: almost all flat with majestic mountains all around, safe and well signposted, with good bike grills where to enjoy a drink at open air tables and nice cities where to stop at. The path initially goes through a peculiar area of Italy: a region where the language, the history of the places, the typical recipes have a lot to do with the German tradition. 

Once you leave the mountains behind, no German language nor knödeln any more, but polenta and Valpolicella! 

Enjoy this easy itinerary with the satisfaction to reach by bike the nice cities of Bolzano, Trento, Rovereto and Verona.

Individual arrival in Verona, meet&greet and bike fitting.

Van transfer of people, bikes and luggages to Ora.

Overnight in Ora.

The route goes up to Caldaro lake area, among bright green vineyards, and then down to Bolzano, following an old railway line converted into a bike path. Bolzano is a city rich in history, influenced by Germanic culture and surrounded by the Alps. Take some time to visit Piazza Walther and the narrow central alleys, or visit the museum where the Otzi mummy is kept.

Second overnight in Ora.

The bicycle itinerary goes South along the verdant Adige valley and crosses immense fields planted with apple trees and vineyards, always on a flat bike path. Along the way, the village of Egna, an ancient market town with streets flanked by arcades, deserves a visit. Finally you’ll arrive in Trento, a city where history and modernity perfectly coexist.

Overnight in Trento.

Leave Trento and continue pedaling along the Adige river, in an area dotted with castles, towers and forts, such as the mighty Beseno Castle, which dominates the valley from the top of a hill. We recommend a small detour to visit the beautiful historic center of Rovereto, made up of narrow alleys permeated by a medieval atmosphere. 

The itinerary continues South, through the town of Ala, with its beautiful noble palaces, and finally arrives at the small village of Brentino Belluno, the destination of the day.

Overnight in Brentino Belluno.

The cycle path runs along the wildest stretch of the Val d'Adige. The valley becomes narrower, guarded by high mountains, the rarest towns and the valley floor covered with immense vineyards surrounded by woods. The route passes through the spectacular Chiusa dell’Adige, a canyon with high walls, and then leaves the cycle path and heads towards Lake Garda. In Bardolino we finally touch the blue waters of the lake, and finally we return to Verona following the Adige cycle path.
