Bikepacking z Imst do Curon Venosta

From Imst in Tyrol’s Upper Inn Valley, roll out on the Innradweg toward Landeck, then join the Via Claudia Augusta through Prutz and Pfunds to Nauders. The big climb tops out around 1,530 m at the Reschen/Resia Pass, then it’s a glorious run along Lake Resia to Graun im Vinschgau. Expect a long, multi‑day ride with punchy Alpine ramps (about 6,300 m of total ascent) but mostly friendly surfaces: roughly 90% paved and around 40% on dedicated cycleways. There’s a smidge of loose gravel, so 28–32 mm tires are perfect. You’ll briefly touch busier roads near towns, and a few short tunnels before Nauders—bring lights.

Imst is known for the Rosengartenschlucht gorge, the Alpine Coaster, and its UNESCO‑listed Schemenlaufen carnival. Graun greets you with the surreal church tower rising from Lake Resia—the remnant of the old village flooded in the 1950s. Great coffee stops: Prutz, Pfunds, Nauders; picnic spots all along the lake. Consider breaking the trip into stages like Imst–Pfunds–Nauders–Graun and soak up castle views and orchard‑lined paths through the Vinschgau.
