This moderate circular bike tour leads through Salla, Welsberg and Taisten with beautiful panoramic views of the Dolomites.

This medium-difficulty tour first leads you out of the valley on the cycle path, past the football pitch in Niederrasen and under the Puster Valley road. The route then continues to Oberolang and veers towards the Pustertal Valley cycle path. After the cemetery in Oberolang, turn right, follow the road to the hamlet of Salla and cycle on to Welsberg. Follow the cycle path along the river in the direction of the Gsieser Valley. After approx. 2 km, turn off towards Taisten, cycle through the village and then reach the beautiful hill from where you have a breathtaking view of the Dolomites. Continue along the road until you reach the Obergoste, from where you descend to Rasen. After the Hotel Alte Goste, the cycle path turns right to Rasen (gravel road from here) and you return directly to Niederrasen.
