Get ready! Road bike training in South Tyrol

Average reading time: 1 min

If you do not train on the home-bike during winter, and still want to be fit for extended mountain pass tours in summer, or even participate at some road bike marathons, you will have to exercise in spring in order to have a good basis. South Tyrol is ideal for spring training.

Especially at the beginning of the training phase in spring it is important to train the basics and not to burn yourself out in the mountains. In Bolzano & environs, in the surroundings of Merano, and in Val Venosta there are numerous suitable tours in charming landscapes so you can cycle one kilometre after the other.

The FIT FOR FUN magazine recommends intensifying the training with gradually increasing lengths. During a training week in South Tyrol the BikeHotel hosts will support you in drawing up a suitable tour programme for your training in order to get fit for the upcoming season.

Here you'll find further information on the special Roadbike Opening for road cyclists in South Tyrol.
