From the town center of Naturno, we take Via Stazione / Bahnhofstraße which leads us to a bridge, the starting point of the cycle path on the Lungoadige /Etschdamm. We turn left onto the cycle path towards Merano. We pass through the villages Plaus and Rablà before reaching Tel. There, we cross the state road and take the new cycle path downhill to Lagundo. At the first hairpin bend, a viewpoint offers a stunning panoramic view over Merano and its surroundings. After a short break, we continue our ride to Merano. We follow the cycle path towards Bolzano until we reach Ponte Adige, a village right before the capital Bolzano. In Firmiano/Sigmunskron we turn right and take the cycle path in the direction of Appiano/Eppan and Lake Caldaro. The bike path runs on the former railway line and thus takes us in a pleasant incline to Girlano and finally Appiano. From there, the cycle path takes us to Caldaro and in a descent we reach our destination, Lake Caldaro.
The available bike shuttle can be used to return back to Naturno (Information available at the tourist office in Naturno)
