Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day over relatively flat terrain with a few small hills—all very manageable for people trying their first biking trip.
Walking – 6-10 km (4-6 mi.) a day on country lanes, footpaths and coastal or forest trails, all on relatively flat terrain, perhaps with an occasional hill.
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day over terrain that’s relatively flat but will include inclines and the occasional climb or two.
Walking – 8-12 km (5-7 mi.) a day over relatively flat terrain, with occasional steeper climbs.
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day in gently rolling countryside, with occasional longer climbs to points that are well worth the effort.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) a day over rolling terrain on a variety of surfaces. Most days, one or two steeper climbs to spectacular viewpoints or places of interest.
Biking – Roughly 50 km (30 mi.) a day in consistently rolling countryside, with repeated climbs and longer options available.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) over terrain that varies between rolling and hilly, with a few steeper climbs.
Biking – 50-60 km (30-45 mi.) a day over both level and tougher, hillier terrain with multiple 100 km (62 mi.) options. The routes are designed for avid cyclists and include plenty of chances to push yourself.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) a day over fairly hilly terrain offering lots of challenges. Routes are along high meadow paths and/or well-maintained cliffside or alpine trails, with a few steep ascents to make you feel invigorated.
Four countries, two wheels; one epic adventure! Get well-acquainted with the Alps as you connect peaks and mountain towns on an e-biking journey that passes through Germany, Austria and Italy, and even takes a little dip into Switzerland along the way. From Munich to Verona, you’ll ride along on the old Via Claudia Augusta, the first real road to travel through the Alps. Prepare for an unforgettable combination of landscapes, wellness-focused hotels and tributes to the area’s eventful history and the cultures that shaped it.

Today's path meanders through the mountains, making the first stop at the Tyrolean castle town of Oberland. From here, you’ll venture into country number three of your journey: Switzerland!

After breakfast, you will be on your own to explore Verona at your leisure, or we can help you arrange a drive to the airport. Arrivederci! Auf Wiedersehen!
Hotel Post dazzles from the moment you arrive and lingers long after you leave. Experience pure alpine luxury at this panoramic hideaway with its striking views of the Zugspitze mountain from its elegant guestrooms and a sumptuous spa.
Surrounded by sunny orchards, Garberhof is an oasis of tranquillity and prime example of the scenic beauty of South Tyrol. Cool hues and wood accents dress rooms in a cabin-chic decor. Wellness amenities include an indoor and outdoor pool, fitness centre and spa.
A beloved hotel among travellers since 1910, this elegant property features contemporary artwork and a range of architecture throughout.

Nature inspires at the Alpenhof Murnau, where tastefully furnished rooms and suites enjoy a sunny view of the Alps and the Murnauer Moos, Central Europe’s largest moorland. Wellness is at the hotel's core, with their 1,000-square-metre spa and a bathing area that invites you to relax.
Set amid the Valpolicella vineyards, this 5-star property has been converted from a Renaissance villa into an exquisite hotel. The tranquil grounds—featuring vineyards, a huge pool and a private park—are surrounded by old stone walls. The hotel’s gourmet restaurant features a talented young chef who prepares Mediterranean classics that can be enjoyed on the outside terrace.
The guides, the weather, the itinerary, the surprises, the routes, the rest stops, the scenery, the camaraderie, the transportation, the accommodations and, of course, the cuisine was superb.
—Tom NordoneWhen we think of luxury activity travel, we think B&R. When we have a travel window on the calendar, the first thing we do is look to see what B&R offers."
—Michael MaloofDaily routes range on average between 50 to 100 km (31 to 62 mi.). While the distances are long, e-bike technology brings the peaks within everybody’s reach. These are the Alps, however, and the more time you’ve spent in the saddle, the more you will enjoy the riding, so be sure to start training in advance. This trip becomes closer to 'Avid' level if travellers opt to include major climbs like Monte Bondone, Passo Stelvio, etc.
In a word: everything. In ninety words? Signature B&R guides; local experts; unique, unforgettable biking and walking routes; private tours; authentic local cuisine; lessons and demonstrations; local artisanal wines; wine tastings; all victuals and libations; all the endorphins you can handle; new insight; interesting, fun and like-minded travel companions; a feeling of total freedom. In short: an extraordinary, hassle-free journey of discovery.
