Innsbruck - Munich
From the Golden Roof to the English Garden
Individual bike tour - 7 days/6 nights - approx. 248 km by bike
High mountains, deep canyons: the Free State of Bavaria and "the holy country" Tyrol. Similar - yet opposite. Cycling, you will experience dreamlike mountain backdrops, formidable fortresses and impressive monasteries. The river Inn winds its way in its narrow bed through the most mountainous federal state in Austria. The wonderful Ziller Valley, the crystal-clear lake water and the still young turquoise-blue river Isar will enchant you. Linger in one of the numerous rustical guest houses and experience for yourself the proverbial hospitality. Impressive mountains, clean air, best water quality and foremost humanity - that is what Bavaria and Tyrol have in common!
The tour is an easy tour with short ascents, which can also be conquered, by pushing the bike. You cycle on wonderful cycle paths and small side roads, main roads only for short distances.
