The Alps are the fantasy of every motorcyclist and with a fairly long tour like this one you get a very good impression of it. The most important alpine countries are on our itinerary, Austria, Switzerland, France and Italy. This is where the highest passes, the most spectacular roads and the most magnificent panoramas await you. Here we collect passes like other people collect stamps, the crème de la crème of the world‘s best motorcycle roads is waiting for us, hundreds and hundreds of hairpin bends, one more beautiful and more fun than the other. For an experienced motorcyclist, this is the ultimate pleasure!
We start in Tyrol, cross the whole of Switzerland and finally arrive in France, where we circumnavigate the eternally snow-covered mountain giant Montblanc. After that, we enter Italian soil to enjoy orchards are in full bloom and the smell of the world‘s best espresso. Did somebody say paradise? Could be right here, perhaps in the middle of the incomparable Dolomites where we spend a rest day before we continue and return to Austria, where the oldest panorama road in the world is waiting to take us up the Grossglockner. This stretch is so fantastic and the mountain world around us so breathtaking that one could suspect paradise right here. At the end of the tour we all agree, for motorcyclists, paradise is everywhere where there are beautiful landscapes and winding roads. Like here.
