The valley starts at the Stephansbrücke and not in Neustift, as most people below claim. The brand new bike path lends itself perfectly to cycling over 80 kilometers (there and back), with about 2,000 elevation gain.

The valley starts at the Stephansbrücke and not in Neustift, as most people below claim. The brand new bike path lends itself perfectly to cycling over 80 kilometers (there and back), with about 2,000 elevation gain. This is because the new bike section is constructed with a trapezoidal shape and a gradient of 9%. Then the road slopes pleasantly as you ride up false flat from Fulpmes, after which the actual ascent begins at the foot of the bike path to Schlick 2000.

You then cycle with beautiful views towards the glacier, through several passages, until past Camping Edelweiß you slowly start to climb with a maximum gradient of 15% in some sections. The road is wide, so traffic hardly bothers you - and it gets less and less towards the Mutterbergs. You drive all the way to the back of the parking lot towards the glacier and then find yourself at an altitude of 1,745 meters - it stops there.

Contrary to what the Dutch write below, this route is often used by professionals as training, as it contains considerable altimeters. Moreover, you can use the bike path, which is in perfect condition, up to the first tunnel - and so, contrary to what is claimed below, it is not a freeway.

P.S.: I have lived in the Stubaital for over seven years.

Het dal begint bij de Stephansbrücke en niet in Neustift, zoals de meeste mensen hieronder beweren. Het gloednieuwe fietspad leent zich uitstekend om ruim 80 kilometer te fietsen (heen en terug), met circa 2.000 hoogtemeters. Dit komt doordat het nieuwe fietsgedeelte is aangelegd met een trapezevorm en een stijgingspercentage van 9%. Vervolgens glooit de weg aangenaam af wanneer je vanuit Fulpmes vals vlak omhoog rijdt, waarna de eigenlijke stijging begint aan de voet van het fietspad naar Schlick 2000.

Je fietst dan met prachtige vergezichten richting de gletsjer, door verschillende passages, totdat je voorbij camping Edelweiß langzaam begint te stijgen met een maximale helling van 15% op sommige stukken. De weg is breed, dus van het verkeer heb je nauwelijks last — en dat wordt richting de Mutterbergs steeds minder. Je rijdt tot helemaal achter aan de parkeerplaats richting de gletsjer en bevindt je dan op 1.745 meter hoogte — daar houdt het op.

In tegenstelling tot wat de Nederlanders hieronder schrijven, wordt deze route vaak door professionals gebruikt als training, omdat er aanzienlijke hoogtemeters in zitten. Bovendien kun je het fietspad, dat in perfecte staat verkeert, gebruiken tot aan de eerste tunnel — en is het dus, anders dan hieronder wordt beweerd, geen autowegen.

P.S.: Ik woon al ruim zeven jaar in het Stubaital.

Especially suitable as downhill, especially at the beginning of the valley just motorway. At the end still a bit covered and somewhat nice and steep

Vooral geschikt als afdaling, zeker aan begin van het dal gewoon autoweg. Aan einde nog stukje overdekt en wel wat lekker steil

Stubaital from Neustift is a nice stretch for cycling. Lots of traffic though. Visit the glacier while it is still there. At Mutterbergalm take the lift up.

Stubaital is vanaf Neustift een aardige strook om te fietsen. Wel veel verkeer. Pak nog even een bezoekje aan de gletsjer mee, zolang die er nog is. Bij de Mutterbergalm met de lift omhoog.

Not the most spectacular climb, but the further you get into the valley the better, calmer and more beautiful it gets. The road surface is superb, especially for descending. I took parallel roads as much as possible to climb. This is nice and quiet and more beautiful (see also the photos's) and the descent I did on the main road which is lovely downhill. This makes the climb a whole lot more fun! By the way, don't forget to take a light for the series of tunnels towards the end.

Niet de meest spectaculaire klim, maar hoe verder je in het dal komt hoe beter, rustiger en mooier het wordt. Het wegdek is super, zeker om af te dalen. Ik heb zoveel mogelijk parallel wegen genomen om te klimmen. Dat is lekker rustig en mooier (zie ook de foto's) en de afdaling heb ik over de hoofdweg gedaan wat heerlijk afdalen is. Dit maakt de klim een heel stuk leuker! Vergeet overigens niet een lampje mee te nemen voor de serie tunnels richting het einde.

Not the most beautiful climb but still some nice views along the way, especially towards the end. Technically speaking, this is also where the hardest parts are, with percentages around 10% which are alternated with parts where it flattens out. Pay attention to the cattle grids and half open tunnels in combination with a lot of traffic at busy times. Down in the valley it is anyway busier with cars.

Niet de allermooiste klim maar toch wel wat mooie uitzichten onderweg, vooral richting het einde. Klimtechnisch zitten daar ook de zwaarste stukken met percentages rond de 10% die worden afgewisseld met stukken waar het afvlakt. Let op de veeroosters en halfopen tunnels in combinatie met veel verkeer op drukke momenten. Onderin het dal is het sowieso drukker met auto's.

You don't need special gearing for Stubaital. The slope isn't long or steep enough to require much shifting down. You can conquer this climb on power alone.
