  CHARACTERISTICS AND VARIATIONS
Characteristics
This valley tour Left the main villages – Castelrotto, Siusi and Fiè - of the Alpe di Siusi holiday region together in a varied and extremely challenging circular tour. The way there and the way back are completely different. The main road with its heavy traffic is virtually not used. Bikers, who overnight in one of the valley villages, can reach the starting points of these tours in other valley villages this way on stunningly beautiful routes.
The tour starts from the tower of Castelrotto’s picturesque centre and in fact initially in the direction of San Valentino on the Alpe di Siusi road. The first two kilometres climb gently and are ideally suitable for warming-up.
You cruise downhill to Siusi and traverse the village. Still parallel to the main road you descend on varied bike routes, mostly downhill, via San Costantino and Sant’Antonio to Fiè. Whoever would like to can have a look at the beautiful town centre or have a bite to eat.
The identical route takes you back as far as Sant’Antonio. There you turn off to Novale di Fiè, located lower. The route leads through the peaceful Novale di Fiè to just before San Costantino. There it makes a detour to the remote Konstantiner Weiher (pond). A good sense of direction is helpful on this circular tour and for the additional routes as far as the Maso Fallhof.
From the Maso Fallhof to as far as San Vigilio this valley tour offers now even something for fans of riding technique. Narrow trails and a momentarily very steep descent with descent gradients up to 25% on a woodland trail cater for riding fun and variety.
Further uphill you come across the idyllic Malenger Mühle (mill) with its small but very interesting wheat museum. You get back to Siusi via the Maso Furscher Hof.
From Siusi you follow the main road briefly uphill in the direction of Castelrotto, but soon turn off to Wood of Laranz. You ride past the sports centre Telfen to Misaltweg. Here you have to dismount for a short while. The narrow hiking trail that takes you back to Castelrotto is too steep and interspersed with steps.

Variations
1. Alternative starting points: You can begin the tour in Siusi or Fiè.

2. Detour to Laghetto di Fiè: Whoever would like to go swimming or increase the difference in altitude should turn sharp left shortly before San Costantino at waymarker 31 in the direction of the Lake Laghetto di Fiè (sign for cul-de-sac). After swimming, the short descent via Weiherstraße to Sant’Antonio begins at Hotel Waldsee. There you join the tour described here at waymarker 41.

3. Leaving out the Konstantiner Weiher ( pond): Do not bear left at the fork (waymarker 59), but bear right directly to the Maso Fallhof. There turn sharp right at waymarker 68 to continue the tour.
