Sortie rapide à vélo de Soprabolzano à Bolzano

Starting your ride in Soprabolzano, perched high above the Bolzano valley at over 1,200 meters, get ready for a scenic descent into the heart of South Tyrol! Soprabolzano, known for its breathtaking mountain views and as the upper station of the famous Renon cable car, is a charming village that feels a world away from the city bustle below.

The route down to Bolzano is about 12 km, mostly on paved and asphalt roads, with quiet stretches, the occasional cycleway, and a little bit of everything else to keep things interesting. You’ll lose over 1,100 meters in elevation, so the ride is much more about enjoying the views than grinding up hills!

As you glide into Bolzano—South Tyrol’s vibrant capital—keep an eye out for church spires and the lush orchards on your descent. The city itself is famous for its blend of Italian and Austrian cultures, picturesque old town, and the world-famous Ötzi the Iceman.

All in all, it’s a thrilling downhill ride from alpine serenity to urban life. Enjoy the breeze!
