Itinerary of your trip Alpe-Adria-Cycle Path Salzburg-Grado 8/7

  • Day 1 Arrival In Salzburg
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Arrival In Salzburg

      Individual arrival in the festival-, Mozart- and cultural city of Salzburg. Winding alleyways and squares invite you to take a stroll and languorous cafรฉs entice you to sample genuine Austrian cafรฉ-specialities. You live and breath culture and history literally with every step you take.

      Hotel (example): Hotel Goldenes Theater

  • Day 2 Salzburg - St. Johann (Approx. 70 Km)
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Salzburg - St. Johann (Approx. 70 Km)

      Out of Salzburg and off headed South. You cycle along wetlands in the shade along the river Salzach to Hallein, a formerly wealthy Celtic town due to salt mining. Hallein surprises with a romantic historic town centre including little alleyways, archways and oppulent house fronts. Past the roaring waterfall you pass Golling and continue along the well-developed cycle path onwards to St. Johann. Distinctive โ€“ just like twin-peaks โ€“ the steeples of the Pongau cathedral rise.

      Hotel (example): Brรผckenwirt

  • Day 3 St. Johann - Molltal Valley (Approx. 60 Km + Train Ride)
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      St. Johann - Molltal Valley (Approx. 60 Km + Train Ride)

      Shortly after Schwarzach you bid farewell to the river Salzach, from today onwards the Gasteiner Ache leads you through the wild-romantic Gasteiner-valley. Via Dorfgastein and Bad Hofgastein you cycle into the renowned spa- and ski resort Bad Gastein situated at the foot of the Hohen Tauern-mountain chain, offering a variety of natural history- and architectural sights. The Gasteiner waterfall is the landmark situtated in the centre of town, which has been the focal point of many artists and poets. Now it is only a short distance to Bรถckstein, where a train takes you in only 10 minutes through the โ€šTauernschleuseโ€˜ to the other side of the Alps to Mallnitz. Back on your bike you enjoy the speedy descent to your hotel in the Mรถlltal-valley.

      Molltal Valley - Villach (Approx. 70 Km)

      Initially you cycle along the river Mรถll through the impressive alpine landscapes today.

      The Drautal-valley starts in the village of Mรถllbrรผcke and hence the sunny South of Austria. Nearly effortlessly your bike rolls in a slight descent along the river Drau. In Spittal you get to visit the Renaissance-palace โ€šPorciaโ€˜ โ€“ sometimes called the โ€šmost beautiful Renaissance-building north of the Alpsโ€˜. Just a bit more pedalling and soon you have reached Villach, with its enchanting old part of town, Southern flair and inviting pubs and restaurants.

      Villach - Venzone/Surroundings (Approx. 60 Km +Train Ride)

      You bypass the ascent to Tarvis by train. In Italy too the cycle paths are well-developed and so you cycle leisurely downhill through the Kanaltal-valley and from your bike get to marvel at the beauty of the Friulian alpine region with its intact, unspoilt nature and extensive forests. Your Day Finish is one of the picturesque villages located at the foothills of the Julian Alps.

      Hotel (example): Hotel Pittis

  • Day 6 Venzone/Surroundings - Udine (Approx. Ca 55 Km)

      At the Southern exit of the Kanaltal-valley is the location of one of the most beautiful historic villages of the Friulian-Julian-Veneto. The focus of the village of Gemona del Friuli is the majestic cathedral Santa Maria Assunta and will blow you away. En route to Udine, you come across the first vineyards and vines along the cycle route. Once you arrive in town feel and experience the โ€šdolce vitaโ€˜ over a coffee enjoyed on the โ€šPiazzaโ€˜ or during a stroll through the alleyways whilst marveling at the late Gothic and Renaissance architecture.

In the Roman city of Aquileia, the so-called โ€šsecond Romeโ€˜, we recommend you definitely plan a break  before reaching the end destination of your holiday. One of the most popular Adriatic beach resorts, the historic little fishing town Grado, will not only excite you with the extensive sandy beach, but also the historic harbour and the narrow alleyways with lovely restaurants all ooze Italian flair.
