Gita in bici di un giorno da Mittenwald a Innsbruck

Ready for an epic ride? This route takes you from the charming Bavarian town of Mittenwald to the lively city of Innsbruck in Austria. You’ll cover about 62 kilometers, weaving your way through some seriously stunning Alpine scenery.

Mittenwald, famous for its colorful painted houses and violin-making history, sits at the foot of the Karwendel mountains. The journey south rolls mostly on smooth asphalt and paved roads, with short sections of gravel to keep things interesting. You’ll climb just over 630 meters—enough to get your heart pumping but not too brutal—and descend nearly 970 meters as you head into the Inn valley.

You’ll ride tracks and quiet roads for the most part, with only brief stretches alongside busier traffic, and you’ll pass through lush valleys and postcard-worthy mountain views. Innsbruck welcomes you at the end—a city known for its medieval old town, vibrant café life, and as an epicenter of winter sports.

All in all, it’s a fantastic cross-border ride with a good mix of terrain and plenty of Alpine magic. Don’t forget your camera!
