A few notes:
We
set off from Tegernsee having taken the train from Munich. Our first
night was in Kramsach after a pretty wet afternoon. The climbing kept
the legs warm! The second day we rode down into and along the Zillertal,
through Mayrhofen and up to Dominikushütte. A stunning valley. At
Dominikushüüte, the view over the Schlegeisspeicher is very nice, with a
few glaciers as back drops. The next morning in thick fog and teaming
rain we did a big up and over the Pfitscher Joch into Süd Tirol and down
into Sterzing. As that leg was relatively short we took off for the
afternoon having dumped our packs and did a big climb from Mauls over
the pass to Rio di Pusteria / Mühlbach via Masl. Sterzing is very pretty
- the hotel: Steindls was a highlight. Then the next day out of
Sterzing was a long climb up Val di Racines (lots of carrying bikes up
goat tracks) and then down into Walten then along the Passirio river
into Merrano. We had a rest day in Merrano - cracking little town with a
great public spa and plenty of beers gardens with Süd Tirol flair!
Following the rest day again a lot of climbing and single trails past
Masi di Sopra, past Saint Panraz through Ultimo, more climbing through
tunnels to Tregiovo, past the beautiful Lago di Santa Giustino and down
into Male. The last day up the Folgarida pass through to Madonna di
Campiglio was very enjoyable. It was basically all fire trails in the
National Park. The last afternoon was a stinker - a big dirty headwind, I
snapped a chain and generally lots of climbing. We go through to Lake
Garda in the late afternoon ready to smash some prosecco and nail some
pasta!For info:
