Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Zernez à Merano

Get ready for an epic ride from Zernez to Merano! Starting in Zernez, a charming little town in the Engadin Valley famous for its proximity to the Swiss National Park, you’ll roll out surrounded by peaks and pristine alpine air. The route covers just under 150 km, so it’s a solid day (or two!) in the saddle—and you’ll rack up nearly 3,000 meters of climbing, but enjoy even more glorious descents.

You’ll cruise through a mix of mostly paved and asphalt roads, but expect to hit some gravel along the way—so wider tires are a good call. Much of the route keeps you away from traffic, bouncing between quiet roads, tracks, and smooth cycleways, all with mountain vistas that will blow your mind.

The finish line is Merano, a historic spa town in northern Italy, known for its medieval arcades, palm trees, and mild climate. Reward yourself with a dip in the thermal baths or a gelato by the river. This is a route for adventurers—packed with alpine thrills, culture, and some serious elevation!
