Excursión ciclista de un día de Bruck an der Großglocknerstraße a Lienz

Ready for a big adventure? This cycling route kicks off in Bruck an der Großglocknerstraße, a picturesque portal town at the northern foot of the iconic Großglockner High Alpine Road. Bruck is a classic starting point for mountain-loving cyclists—it’s where alpine dreams (and climbs) begin!

From here, you’ll zigzag your way south over about 121 km to Lienz, the “Pearl of the Dolomites.” The ride isn’t for the faint of heart: you’ll be conquering around 3,000 meters of ascent and almost the same in descent, with a max elevation just above 1,200 meters. The journey swings between quiet roads, dedicated cycleways, and a handful of gravel and unpaved stretches—so your route will feel refreshingly remote but mostly smooth rolling.

Once you arrive in Lienz, you’ll be greeted by vibrant Tyrolean flair and stunning mountain views—perfect for a well-earned coffee (or strudel). Whether you’re chasing alpine highs or just love epic routes, this ride offers unforgettable landscapes and that sweet sense of accomplishment!
