The scenery is dominated by the panorama of the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage. The route follows the old railway from Toblach/Dobbiaco to Cortina d´Ampezzo, from the Hochpustertal/Alta Pusteria valley across the Höhlensteintal/Val di Landro valley, past lakes and the View of the Three Peaks.  

From Cortina back to Toblach there are buses with bike trailers operated by the Cortina Express bus company (only in season).

Details

The cycle route leads from Toblach/Dobbiaco over the disused railway line, which is a gravel path. The route leads slightly uphill in a southerly direction, past the lake of Toblach/Dobbiaco, the War Cemetery, the View of the Three Peaks/Landro and the Dürrensee/Landro Lake to the highest point, the pass Gemärk/Cimabanche. The pass is located at 1,530 m, from which the descent to Cortina begins and half of the route has already been mastered. The cycle path leads downwards through a tunnel and an adjoining bridge with a view of the Cortina.
