Two perfect cycling routes for spring

Valle Isarco/Eisacktal valley cycle path (Brixen – Klausen – Bolzano): This well-maintained cycle path runs mostly flat along the Isarco/Eisack river. Take a break in the charming town of Klausen – the perfect mix of culture and nature!
Circuit around Lake Varna/Vahrner See: If you’re after a shorter ride, this beautiful route is ideal for young cyclists. Lake Varna/Vahrner See is a perfect spot for a picnic and some nature watching – in spring, the area blooms with vibrant plants, and you might even spot some waterfowl.

Tips for a successful family cycling trip

The right equipment: In addition to bikes, make sure you pack helmets for everyone. Don’t forget sun protection, weatherproof clothing, and a small snack for the journey.
Plan for breaks: Especially with children, it’s worth taking regular stops, whether it’s for a detour to a playground or to enjoy a delicious South Tyrolean snack at one of the rustic refreshment stations along the route.
Stay flexible: If little legs get tired, there are train stations along many routes where you can hop on the train – especially a great option along the Valle Isarco/Eisacktal valley cycle path.

Spring magic on two wheels:
The gentle paths along the Isarco/Eisack river, the stunning mountain panoramas, and numerous places to stop make every family cycling trip an unforgettable experience. So, off you go – for an unforgettable family bike ride!
