BMW Motorrad Days GARMISCH Beautiful Alps & Venice Exploring
Many highlights packed into a tour that ends at the *BMW Motorrad Days* in Garmisch!
The Alps are a place with a long history. Different countries and languages are close together here. The roads here are a motorcyclist's dream. On the way south, the roads get twistier with every kilometer until we reach the Austrian Alps. Here we spend the night in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Salzburg. From Salzburg, we continue our journey towards Lake Wörthersee, which is one of the largest and certainly one of the most beautiful lakes in Austria. The next day, we head towards the Italian border to our next overnight stop, Mestre, which is located right next to Venice. After spending a rest day sightseeing there, we continue to Cortina d'Ampezzo, a famous ski resort in the Dolomites and venue of the 1956 Winter Olympics. We continue on spectacular mountain pass roads through another UNESCO World Heritage Site, the South Tyrolean Dolomites. Our destination is the Alpe di Siusi, the highest alpine pasture in Europe, a real highlight of this tour due to its location in this spectacular mountain landscape and the ideal place to spend another rest day. Our last stage brings us back to Garmisch, where we will round off this wonderful tour and celebrate the comeback of the *BMW Motorrad Days* in our home town of Garmisch.

From Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the route takes you through picturesque Bavarian countryside with rolling hills, charming villages and alpine views via the Rossfeld panoramic road to Salzburg, the birthplace of Mozart.
From Salzburg, we head south on winding roads through the Austrian Alps to enjoy the crystal-clear waters and tranquil atmosphere of Lake Wörthersee, an idyllic lake in Carinthia.
On a very scenic route from Lake Wörthersee, we reach the land of pasta and coffee. We stay in Mestre, the gateway to Venice on the mainland.
Enjoy a well-deserved rest day in Mestre and explore Venice with its narrow streets, the famous Piazza San Marco, the singing gondoliers and the local cuisine and way of life.
Our tour continues to Cortina d'Ampezzo, venue of the 1956 Winter Olympics and world-famous ski resort, in the middle of the spectacular mountain world of the Dolomites. The passo San Boldo with its five helical tunnels carved into the rock is just one of countless highlights on this day.
We stay in the Dolomites. On mountain roads that make every biker's heart beat faster, today's stage takes us to the Alpe di Siusi, Europe's highest alpine pasture. We end this extraordinary day with a spectacular view of the Schlern (2,563 m).
On your rest day, you can decide whether you want to relax in the hotel or take a walk in the beautiful surroundings of the Alpe di Siusi. But of course you can also collect more bends and passes and spend the rest day in the saddle of your motorcycle. The possibilities are as spectacular as they are varied.
We leave the Dolomites and Italy, cross the main Alpine ridge and pass through Austria at its narrowest point, the province of Tyrol. Our destination today is Garmisch. But before this adventure comes to an end, we review the impressions of the last few days and look forward to spending a day at the *BMW Motorrad Days*.
We spend the last day and evening of our tour on the grounds of the *BMW Motorrad Days* in Garmisch.
Today your tour ends after breakfast and we wish you a safe journey home and hope to see you again soon on one of our tours.
