Spectacular Tunnel and Viaduct Section of the Lunga Via delle Dolomiti

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The approximately 32 km long railway line between Toblach and Cortina is very easy to ride along its entire length and is extremely attractive, as it runs right through the Dolomites and constantly offers great views of the mountains.
Apart from the beautiful Lake Dürrensee, this section is the most spectacular part of the route. The route leads through several tunnels and over a viaduct that bridges a deep gorge.
Magnificent!

Highlight • Viewpoint

Once you have made the arduous ascent to this place, you will not want to leave. With every breath you try to draw in the beauty, because such an idyllic panorama is not offered at every corner of the Alps.

Dobbiaco–Cortina Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The Dobbiaco-Cortina cycle path winds along the old railway line through breathtaking Alpine landscapes. The route, slightly downhill from Dobbiaco to Cortina, is also suitable for less experienced cyclists and passes through coniferous forests, wooden bridges and tunnels dug into the rock. Along the way, you will come across panoramic points that offer suggestive views of the surrounding Dolomite peaks, including the majestic Tre Cime di Lavaredo. Along the route there are old railway stations transformed into rest stops and small refuges where you can refresh yourself.

Highlight • Viewpoint

Although the Three Peaks are still a long way away, in the valley they appear to be within reach.

July 1, 2025,Welsberg - Plätzwiese - Dreizinnenblick - Toblach. Runde von Unterplanken.

Prato allo Plätzwiese is a magical place at an altitude of 2,000 meters in the middle of the mountains. A truly impressive panorama! We were also able to ride practically the entire route today on truly beautiful bike paths or small side roads. 😍 A truly beautiful loop.
