Saddle up and go

Hohenwart is the perfect mountain bike hotel near Meran

Whether leisurely along the Passer, sporty on forest roads or full of adrenaline on mountain trails: cycling around Schenna is an invitation to experience the landscape in a different way - more directly, more freely, more lightly. Mediterranean vegetation, alpine freshness, orchards, vineyards and forest paths rush past, opening the mind and clearing your thoughts. So hop on your road bike or mountain bike and explore over 200 km of marked routes for all levels.

Out and about together

If you wish, you can explore the region together with other guests and an experienced bike guide from our mountain bike hotel near Meran. Each week, we offer guided e-bike tours for those who prefer a more relaxed pace, led by hosts who know where the most beautiful views await, which stop is worth it and which route suits whom best. Everything is easy-going and welcoming, with plenty of time for enjoyable breaks and to take in the panorama while mountain biking in the Italian Alps.

The view from above makes you forget the effort of the ascent in an instant.
