Tour of the Gantkofel-Macaion

Mountain Bike Tour from Eppan to the Mount Gantkofel (1,860m)

The MTB tour to the Gantkofel is a relatively strenuous tour, which rewards the biker with a magnificent panorama.
The ascent to the Mendel Pass is either via the - especially in summer very busy and heavily trafficked - asphalt road, or via the forest roads Gand-Matschatsch and Boos to leave out a large part of the road. Alternatively, it is also recommended to use the Mendelbahn (for a fee); especially for our youngest bikers.
From the Mendel Pass, this MTB tour - instead of the water trail from the Mendel Pass to the Prinzenhütte - can also be ridden as a variant along the Mendel ridge: with crossing of Penegal, Monte Largaden and Furgglauer Scharte.
