have you ridden the city trails? i.e. ritten trail 2 and 3, kohlern 3, 4a, 4b, 8 and jenesien 6?

next to bozen is a super small and very scary gondola in vilpian, leads to some sick old trails. one of my favourites there. and over the valley is a cog rail that leads up to the mendelpass. from there you can ride up to the röen mountain, one of the highest in the region.

Many interesting Switzerland attractions to discover. We can see the Swiss Miniature village in Melide-Lugano, Weltklasse Zurich or Barbier Mueller Museum in Geneva.

Our last day of riding in Latsch, Sud Tirol.

http://www.leelau.net/sharonandlee/s...schgau-valley/

Downhill off St. Martins Gondola

Eating mid ride!

Then we went to the other side of the valley and did a 2000m descent!

The next day we rode the Goldsee trail off Stelvio pass

Of course we ate well
