Description

Among cyclists, the Tannheimer Tal has been known for a long time, as in 2001 the peloton of the Austria Tour passed through the valley. In 2005, the pros of the Bavaria Tour came to the start stage on Tyrolean soil and were rewarded with the mountain classifications Tannheimer Tal and Jungholz. Even pros noticed the scenic charms of the "probably the most beautiful high valley in Europe." Lush green meadows, the Haldensee lake and a beautiful mountain backdrop accompanied the pros on their racing kilometers. Thus, the Tannheimer Tal has also established itself as an ideal region for targeted training or extended routes. "The Tannheimer Tal is an ideal starting point for long road bike rides to surrounding regions such as Lake Constance or Arlberg," says Michael Keller, managing director of the Tannheimer Tal Tourist Board and former Austrian mountain bike national coach. Cyclists find a wide range of accommodation in the Tannheimer Tal besides the ideal starting point. From 5 star houses to private rooms, you can choose your accommodation. After a nice ride, let your soul dangle and recharge your batteries. - The Tannheimer Tal
