Start from the
Bike Hotel Alpenblick****s on the cycle path to
San Candido (1,150), from there continue along the
cycle path along the
River Drava until
Dobbiaco, (1,210) up to the railway station. Pass the railway station to the main road, cross this and cycle for about 2 km on the
cycle path towards Brunico. After the railway underpass turn right towards
Dobbiaco Alta, following the
Stoneman sign continue into the
Silvestro Valley, passing the
Rifugio Genziana, from there continue to the first fork, where you continue to
“Seiterhof” in
Gandelle (1,570) and from there the steep ascent begins along the easily negotiable
route no. 25 to Rifugio Bonner hut (2,350). Spectacular views reward the effort and if you take a break at the
Rifugio Bonner hut, you will feel as though you are in the
“first row of an Alpine cinema”. The return path to the
Bike Hotel Alpenblick ****s takes you back to
Sesto along the same path. Alternatively, you can go back to
San Candido and
Dobbiaco via the Monte San Candido.
