SPEED & MOMENTUM

Cycling along the roads of the Inn Valley, through idyllic villages and with wonderful views: the towns and villages in the Innsbruck region offer a wide range of options for more than just mountain biking. The area also provides ideal terrain for road cyclists. Numerous bike paths criss-cross the region. The roads to the surrounding villages are well developed and many places offer paved country roads with little traffic. If you would rather take on some big climbs, there are of course also challenging routes available. However, many are possible with only moderate gains in elevation.

A beautiful tour that leads through stunning landscapes, around the Karwendel mountains, through the young Isar Valley and past the Sylvenstein reservoir and Lake Achensee. The route boasts stunning scenery and panoramic views that show how much diversity tours in the Alps have to offer. After the climb to Leutasch, the route follows a gently undulating section to Lake Achensee and then a flat trail back along the Inn Valley.


Route options

An alternative route to the one described is to follow the ascent from Telfs that goes via Mösern and Seefeld. Another option is to stay on the main road after Maurach am Achensee. This route back down into the Inn Valley is less steep and goes via Achenkanzel and Wiesing.
