The Passeiertal (Val Passiria), an unspoilt landscape dotted with green meadows, rustic farms and majestic mountains, is a paradise for every mountain biker and e-biker. One of the best ways to explore this impressive valley is a tour to the Pfandler Alm.

The Passeier cycle path takes us to the starting point of the bike tour to the Pfandler Alm at the Andreus Golf Lodge. Here we leave the main path and take on the challenge of the day: a paved road that winds up the mountainside in several hairpin bends.
As you climb higher and higher, you pass farms, riding partly in the sun, partly through the forest. Be prepared for the surface to change from asphalt to gravel, which will put your riding skills to the test.

After this strenuous climb, you are rewarded with hearty South Tyrolean specialities that refill your energy reserves.

A special highlight of the Pfandler Alm is the deer enclosure, where red deer graze. Take a moment to watch these majestic animals. The Alm is also historically significant: in a hay hut (Mähderhütte) of the Pfandler Alm, Andreas Hofer hid while on the run, until he was betrayed and captured by French soldiers on 28 January 1810.

Whether you ride a traditional mountain bike or an e-bike, this tour will delight you with its impressive landscapes, challenging climbs and delicious rewards. It is one of the best ways to experience the beauty of the Passeiertal on two wheels.
