Explorers’ cycle tour in the Quellenviertel – tips for true explorers

For anyone who’d rather discover little-known gems whilst travelling than just cover the distance.

Not everything along the Discovery Cycle Tour fits neatly into a single category – and that’s precisely what makes it so exciting. Scattered along the various route options are technical curiosities, small museums, unusual structures, parks and squares that you might not have cycled past had you known everything in advance.

One moment you might suddenly come across an old steam locomotive by the side of the path; the next, a power station on the River Inn, a wind farm nestled amongst the hills, or a museum you wouldn’t really have expected to find there. Then there are little spots to rest, marvel at the sights or simply take a quick look around.

It’s precisely these kinds of discoveries that turn kilometres into memories. So do feel free to stop for a moment if something catches your eye whilst you’re out and about. After all, you don’t always have to know what’s waiting just round the next bend.
