There are no better views: The views from the Gantkofel over the Etschtal, the South Tyrolean wine route, and the Dolomites are spectacular. And so are the single tracks leading to the ridge.
This tour to the north-east of the Val di Non requires high levels of fitness and riding skills, but the views from the Gantkofel will reward you for every bead of sweat. Even more energy, stamina, and resistance are required for the almost 13-km-long climb from Fondo, so get ready to take on the challenge of the Mendelkamm single tracks. The level of difficulty of these tracks is generally S2 and requires certain skills, but in parts it goes up to S3.
The first opportunity to stop over for refreshments is at the Regole di Malosco, therefore you should make sure you take a snack and a drink with you. An even nicer place for a break is at the Bergner Kreuz.
