Super Gegend mit tollen Radwegen und reizenden Städten und Dörfern. Unser Hotel "Germania" in Toblach war spitze. Hatten für Anfang Juni auch wirklich sehr gutes Wetter. Unterlagen für Radtour waren gut und sehr hilfreich.

Abwechslungsreiche Radetappen. Trotz nicht immer schönem Wetter konnten wir jeden Tag aufs Rad und genossen die eindrücklichen Dolomiten. Unser Hotel in Toblach (Laurin's) verwöhnte uns jeden Abend mit einem ausgezeichneten 6 - 7-Gang Menü und auch das Frühstück war sehr gut. Wer genussvolles Radfahren liebt, ist mit dieser Radtour bestens bedient.
