High Alps Tour - August Heatwave Edition (HAT1804)

Day 6: Pontresina- Warth Day 5: Bolzano - Pontresina  After crossing the Dolomites and spending a relaxing day in Bolzano and surroundings, now it's time to climb another majestic pass. Stelvio is in fact the main highlight on our route, followed by four other passes on our way to Switzerland: Passo Foscagno, Passo d'Eire, Forcola di Livigno and finally Bernina Pass. Day 4: Rest day Bolzano  Another gorgeous warm day in a picturesque town. There is a lot of good riding in the area but Bolzano itself offers quite a good amount of sights. Though choice, so we offer both. Manuel will guide the city tour around his home town while Jürgen will lead a leisurely ride around the region.  Riding with Mark and Diego Day 3: Lienz - Bolzano  Today is one of those unforgettable days in your riding life. Starting from Lienz in Austria we enter Italy in San Candido and then we cross entirely the amazing Dolomites. These rugged mountains are part of the Alps and their peculiar white rock comes from an archaic reef, when the valleys were covered by the ocean. Simply stunning, curve after curve. DAY 2: Erding- Lienz Day 1: Welcome to Munich! In the middle of the summer, with a balmy 34°C temperature across Bavaria, we are pleased to start another big classic of Edelweiss motorcycle touring: High Alps. Anita & Brian from Utah have booked our guided city tour, so Manuel takes them around the city for some sightseeing while Jürgen prepares the bikes for the tour. Later on everyone (well almost everyone: Ralf is driving from Hamburg and today the Autobahn is pretty jammed) gather together for the welcome briefing. We even have a special guesto from our headquarters: Markus (chief operation manager) came to visit us as a surprise and will join the tour for a couple of days.
