July 7, 2022,Südtirol 🇮🇹: Im Etschtal von Bozen nach Meran

Today only a short bike ride along the Adige to the spa town of Meran. Countless apple orchards line the way. You also have to like the monoculture. In the spring you should avoid the vicinity of the plantations because of the spraying of the apples.

We set off after breakfast. Maria and Joachim rented e-bikes yesterday.
So we can get started right away.
