Profile AUGUSTOUR 2015
This year’s AUGUSTOUR starts in the western part of South Tyrol on the Resia Pass (Coron village), next to the lakes on the border with Austria and Switzerland. After an ample breakfast all participants meet on Friday morning for the first stage, at the Church Tower (submerged steeple) in the Resia Lake, symbol of the Venosta Valley. That stage leads over 86 km from Curon to Merano, best known for its spa resorts where we will have e first stop and visit the center. The second stage (62 km) goes from Merano via Lake Caldaro and – after a stop in a winery it brings you to Bolzano, the main town of South Tyrol where we visit a beautiful Palazzo and have a dinner all together. Finally at the last stage (61 km), the participants enjoy cycling in southern direction to Trento, with a unforgettible stop and refreshment point on half a way of the ride. Within the 3 days there are 3 stages and more than 207 km to be covered.
The AUGUSTOUR – package must be booked in order to participate. It includes all kinds of useful services, such as 3 tours, 3 overnight stays: one in Curon, in Merano and Bolzano cities, daily luggage transport, cultural stops with meals (short lunch) during the stages. The preparations for the next edition are already in full swing, so that we can prepare unforgettable days for all pleasure cyclists.
Befor the start of the event, a comfortable transfer by bus (with bike, of course) can be booked at a small extra cost (50,00.-€ p.p.) to reach the departure site (Passo Resia). Book it in time at the moment of the registration! If you want you can also rent a bike (e-bike or trekking bike) for the 3 days contacting our partner BICI ALTO ADIGE. You can pick it up on Resia.
