Cycling day trip from Imst to Pfunds

This is a fantastic ride starting in Imst, a lively town known for its beautiful gorges and historic architecture in the heart of Tyrol. From there, you’ll pedal south for just under 55 kilometers, heading toward Pfunds, a charming village nestled near the Swiss and Italian borders.

The route mostly follows paved roads (about 95%), so it’s great for road bikes—though you’ll hit a few stretches of gravel and unpaved paths to keep things interesting. Expect a good bit of climbing, with an ascent of over 1,250 meters; legs and lungs will be working, but you’ll be rewarded with awesome mountain views and smooth descents.

Much of your ride is on quiet country roads (44%) and tracks (24%), so it’s generally relaxed and scenic, with a few short sections on busier roads. Once you arrive in Pfunds, take some time to explore its traditional alpine streets and maybe grab a well-deserved pastry! This route really shows off the best of Tyrolean cycling—challenging but super scenic.
