Schloss Tirol - Ancestral Castle of the Counts of Tirol The ancestral castle of the Counts of Tirol, which gave its name to the country, looks back on a chequered history. A first castle complex was built around 1100. Over the centuries, enlargements and conversions followed again and again, but also the "Great Fire" around 1300, which destroyed the castle almost to its foundations. In 1363, the Habsburgs inherited the County of Tirol and the castle. The famous Gothic winged altarpiece was their endowment to Schloss Tirol. A copy of it can be seen in the castle chapel, and the original is in the Tiroler Landesmuseum Ferdinandeum. For strategic reasons, the seat of government was moved from Schloss Tirol to Innsbruck in the 15th century. Centuries of structural decay followed. But despite its desolate state, Schloss Tirol remained firmly anchored in people's consciousness as a symbol of the country. During the Tyrolean Wars of Freedom around 1800, the castle therefore came into the sights of the Bavarian occupiers; Schloss Tirol was plundered and publicly auctioned. After the wars, the country of Tirol returned to the Austrian Empire. The city of Meran acquired the castle and presented it to Emperor Franz I. The present appearance of the complex is largely shaped by monument preservation and restorations in the 19th and 20th centuries. Today, Schloss Tirol is owned by the autonomous province of Bolzano/South Tyrol and houses the Provincial Museum of Cultural and Regional History.

It's simply a great alpine pasture that is also visited by locals, especially on holidays and Sundays there are always special dishes like lamb (which is a real treat).

From Klobenstein up to the valley station of the Rittner Bergbahn - little traffic, sometimes up to 15%

This route involves passing through several tunnels. However, it is closed to bicycles. If you're approaching at high speed from the Penser Joch Pass, you can easily miss the turnoff to the cycle path. Heading towards Bolzano, the cycle path ends a few meters directly after the bridge; it's best to return to the road immediately.
