Cycle the Val Passiria path from Merano to San Leonardo, a picturesque route perfect for touring cyclists. You will pedal along the refreshing Passirio river, enjoying fantastic views over unspoilt nature, green areas, and charming villages. The trail is largely natural with fine-grained gravel and compacted sections, making it unsuitable for racing bikes. This moderate ride covers 25.9 miles (41.7 km) with a gentle 1350 feet (412 metres) of elevation gain, typically taking around 2 hours and 49 minutes.
This accessible route is suitable for all skill levels, including families, thanks to its modest and consistent incline. You can begin your journey near the Sissi statue in Elisabeth Park in Merano. Along the way, you will find ample opportunities for refreshment stops in villages like Kuens, Riffian, Saltaus, and St. Martin, making it easy to break up your ride.
The Passirio river, fed by glacier water from the Ötztal Alps, is your constant companion, with the path crossing it several times via charming covered wooden bridges. The endpoint, San Leonardo in Passiria, holds historical significance as the birthplace of Tyrolean freedom fighter Andreas Hofer, where you can visit a museum dedicated to him.
