Cycling between Triesting and Piesting

Dato:
06.07.2006
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
47,1km

We started this bike trip near Medauhof, between Ödlitz and Berndorf. From there, we first descended towards Pottenstein an der Triesting, where we changed over to the other side of the valley. From there, we entered the long and nice Grabenweg-valley, which leads up to the saddle Am Hals at its very end. Mostly, this road is leading gently upwards, but at its very end, it becomes a little steeper and a nice challenge for cyclists, not talking here about challenges, which aggressive drivers occasionally impose on those on two wheels! On the other side of the saddle, we clearly enjoyed a longer and faster descent into the valley, which brings on out to Perniz. There, we basically turned left (into eastern direction) and followed the Piesting for quite a while on its way out of the mountains. >>>

Hvar cycling, day 2

Dato:
15.07.2005
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
28,4km

After one (very nice!) day of in and around Sveta Nedjelja, including a visit to the impressive caves, high about the village, we got back onto our bikes. The plan had been made already in Split, when we informed ourselves about cycling on Hvar, and received a map, which very clearly described a round, continuing from Sveta Nedjelja along the southern shore of island Hvar further towards the west, all the way to the settlement of Hvar. After some short investigation, also asking some locals, it quickly became clear that there was absolutely no way to continue cycling into the given direction (there simply was no road at all, not even a gravel road). Thus, we had no other choice than to go back the way which he had taken to Sveta Nedjelja two days ago, including the tunnel! We quickly got >>>

Hvar cycling, day 1

Dato:
13.07.2005
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
6:00t
Distanse:
28,9km

We had taken the ferry from Split to Starigrad on Hvar (just taking our bikes with us) and the first thing we did on Hvar was to actually visit Starigrad, not far from where the ferry stops. Starigrad has a nice harbor and and old town which is clearly worth a visit! In Split, we had informed ourselves about biking opportunities on Hvar and we were motivated by a map that outlined a nice biking path around the island. Accordingly, it was our plan to follow this route and thus we started from Starigrad, heading eastwards. The map told that there should be a nice connection to the east a bit north of the main road. Finding this connection, we had to understand that it was not, as assumed, a paved road, but a "gravel" road with all-too-large rocks all over the path, making it almost >>>

Biking through the Alps 6: Pens-Innsbruck

Dato:
30.08.1998
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
7:30t
Distanse:
81,7km

The last, sixth day of this one-week bike-trip through the Alps in Südtirol should bring us over the impressive Penserjoch (at 2200mosl) and then, via Sterzing and the Brenner, to Innsbruck, where we had planned to conclude our trip. We first cycled the roughly 800 height-meters up to Penserjoch in a little less than two hours, enjoying our last pass over 2000mosl, before continuing further northwards. What followed, was a long and fast descent down to Sterzing (at about 930mosl), from where we headed further towards the Brenner (minor pass at about 1365mosl). This brought us also back to Austria. From there, we basically "just" did a long descent towards Innsbruck (about 40km), where we arrived at about 4pm in the afternoon. All in all, this six days long bike trip through >>>

Biking through the Alps 5: Kastelruth-Pens

Dato:

Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
8:15t
Distanse:
68,4km

Day 5 of this multi-day bike-trip through the Alps in Südtirol should bring us first to Bozen and then, from there, northwards into the vicinity of the Penserjoch, another big goal on this trip. Cycling mostly downwards, we rapidly approached Bozen from Kastelruth and found ourselves as low as 275mosl there! :-) Clearly, we had no plans to stay in the low-lands for long, so we continued towards the north after a short break. Due to a little mishap, reading the map, we first took a road, however, which did not really bring us into the right valley! In fact, we really had to get down (almost all the way), again, before we could change to the right route, "dropping" about one hour for this detour. Then, however, everything was clear and we started a long ascent (not so very steep, >>>

Turlengde:

Distanse:
66,5km

Day 4 of this multi-day bike-trip through the Alps in Südtirol should include two major passes, i.e., Passo di Fedaia (2060mosl) and Sellajoch (2245mosl), with a significant dip in between! We started from Caprile at about 8:30 in the morning, heading straight towards Passo di Fedaia in the west. About three hours later, we arrived at the saddle, right next to the majestic Marmolada in the south. On the other side, towards west, we then descended very quickly to Canazei (at about 1500mosl), reaching top-speed of over 60km/h (lots of fun, but also risky). From there, we started our biggest ascent on this day (to Sellajoch) and about two hours later, we actually arrived on this high saddle in amazingly beautiful mountain landscape! What followed was mostly a long descent, first into the >>>
