Hi Everyone
STAHLKOFFER (MOTORCYCLE TOURS) Ltd

TRIP TO THE DOLOMITES SEPTEMBER 2011
Saturday 10th September – Monday 19th September 2011 (10 days, 9 nights)
Enjoy beautiful scenery & ride some of the most tremendous roads in Europe . Within easy reach of the hotel are many famous mountain passes, e.g. Furkelpass, Jaufenpass, Karerpass, Penserjoch, Stilfersjoch & Timmelsjoch to name but a few.

Stay at the totally biker – friendly 3* HOTEL RAUTH. The hotel is situated in the Eggen Valley in the heart of the South Tyrol and is a positive bikers’ paradise. Here we will enjoy gourmet-style meals and the company of the Proprietor Franz Pichler. During our stay we will be able to benefit from Franz’s vast experience of this region. Franz too is a keen biker.


This trip is suitable for an intermediate rider or someone touring for the first time.
