Today’s ride begins with a scenic route alongside the Valdaora reservoir on a well-maintained gravel bike path. You'll then branch off at the village of Monguelfo, where a medieval castle rests atop a rocky ridge, marking the entrance to the verdant Val Casies. The peaceful path along the Casies stream alternates between smooth pavement and hard-packed gravel, leading us to the picturesque village of Santa Maddalena at the head of the valley. Along the way, take in the mountain air and the breathtaking landscape, shaped by the hands of its hardworking farmers. We’ll pause at a local farm for a hearty lunch featuring authentic regional produce. Afterward, we’ll retrace our steps back to the hotel for a relaxing afternoon—perhaps a spa treatment and a dip in the rooftop pool. Tonight, we’ll come together for a gourmet dinner at a favorite local restaurant.

After a classic Italian breakfast with cappuccino and cornetto, we’ll take a short walk to a nearby cable car that will whisk us up to the celebrated Plan de Corones. Standing at 7,464 feet (2,275 m), this peak on the edge of the Dolomites offers panoramic views of the Alps. We’ll enjoy a leisurely walk across the summit plateau, taking in the spectacular surroundings before visiting the Lumen Museum, dedicated to high-alpine photography. This unique museum offers impressive views of the mountains through expansive glass windows.

Prepare for breathtaking views on the bike today as we follow a cycle path alongside the Rienza River to Brunico, a town strategically positioned at the crossroads of four valleys. Known for its historic castles, it was once a vital stronghold with watchtowers and defense posts. Your ride continues on gentle paths and quiet country roads, following the Aurino River through the enchanting Aurina and Tures valleys. A farm-to-table lunch awaits at a local mountain lodge, where Günther and his family raise goats and create dishes from their own goat milk products. After lunch, enjoy a short walk or ride to the impressive Riva Waterfalls before cycling back to the hotel with time to relax. In the evening, consider an easy train ride to nearby San Candido, a charming South Tyrolean village near the Austrian border, where you can enjoy dinner on your own, with recommendations from your guides.

The final stretch is challenging, but the awe-inspiring lake views make every effort worthwhile. At the head of the homonymous valley, Anterselva is the third-largest mountain lake in South Tyrol, surrounded by deep-green forests.
