With the road bike over the Staller Sattel to East Tyrol: the cross-border tour starts eastwards into the Antholzertal. The low-traffic, rustic valley opens up a completely different landscape on the edge of the Rieserferner Ahren Nature Park, past the peaks of the 3,000-metre peaks. Over the Stallersattel, the route crosses the border from Austria into the rustic Tyrolean Defereggen valley and continues east along the road to Lienz. It is precisely the scenic contrasts - from the very traditional Italian Antholz Valley to the extremely rustic Tyrolean Defereggen Valley, which is not yet very touristic but instead very quiet and unspoilt - that make this loop absolutely unique.
Conclusion: An absolute highlight tour with a potpourri of languages, cultures, landscapes and cuisines - very appealing!
