Innsbruck – Lake Garda (Sportive)
1 Review by TourRadar travelers“I was very happy with their choices of hotels, very good locations and the service was great.”

- The Golden Roof in Innsbruck: Emperor Maximilian once enjoyed the view of the city centre and its people from Innsbruck's landmark. Today, it is not only worth looking up at the Golden Roof but also strolling through the lively city centre.
- Magnificent panorama of the Ortler: According to legend, the 3,905-metre-high Ortler is a fossilised giant. But it's not the only one - around 70 other peaks in the mountain massif of the same name pass the 3,000-metre mark. Simply wow!
- The Passer Promenade in Merano: As a health resort, the delightful South Tyrolean town already attracted the nobility to South Tyrol in Empress Sissi's time. Stroll in the footsteps of the Austrian monarch along Merano's most traditional promenade and marvel at the elaborate flora.

- The Golden Roof in Innsbruck: The famous landmark has now been shaping its home for over 500 years. You should not only look at the 2,657 fire-gilded copper shingles, but also at the places underneath - what is a bare bottom doing on the "Goldenes Dachl"?
- South Tyrolean wine and fruit: The mildly sunny yet windy climate makes all the difference - the fruit varieties of apple, pear and apricot thrive particularly well on the alpine southern slopes. But the wine is not to forgotten. Take time for a rest in this special region.
- Trento Domplatz: Watch the people strolling, marvel at the artistically painted houses and take a souvenir photo at the Neptune Fountain - the central square of the northern Italian city invites you to linger.

- Herreninsel and Fraueninsel on the Chiemsee: So different and yet somehow connected. Each of the islands has its very own history. While a castle sits enthroned on Herrenchiemsee, the Benedictine nuns ran a convent on Frauenchiemsee.
- Impressive Alpine panorama: Wherever you cast your gaze, the mountains provide simply perfect natural scenery on this tour. There's something calming and exhilarating about admiring the sunset over the mountains in the evening after completing a stage.
