Transalp passing by Malga Geisler – We are just steps from the route of the Transalp tour!

The original Transalp route passes directly in front of Malga Geisler. The Adolf-Munkel trail is currently closed to cyclists which means that the bumpy track that leads to the Brogles mountain hut today can be travelled only by pushing the bike by hand (1.5 km). The Bike Transalp route anyhow remains a unique experience for all MTB enthusiasts – For more info, check the website: www.transalp.info
