Cycling day trip from Galtür to Scuol

Ready for an epic alpine ride? This route takes you from Galtür, a cozy mountain village tucked deep in Austria’s Paznaun Valley, all the way down to the Swiss spa town of Scuol. You’ll pedal over almost 62 km, with a whopping 2,265 meters of climbing—and even more descending—so expect big mountain views and a real adventure vibe.

The route has you mostly on tracks and paths—think a good mix of gravel and natural surfaces, with some stretches of tarmac to keep things interesting. While almost 40% is unpaved, you’ll cross high alpine terrain, topping out at a massive 2,600 meters. Pack for changing weather and save some energy for those climbs!

Once you reach Scuol, reward yourself at one of its famous thermal baths. Fun fact: Galtür is known for skiing and dramatic backdrops, while Scuol is the gateway to the Swiss National Park—making this an unforgettable cross-border mountain ride.
