Bike touring from Innsbruck, over the Alps to Venice along Inn and Adige - is it worth the climb?

The bike routes along the Inn river in Austria and Adige river (Etsch in German) in Italy can be connected by the climbing the Alps at Passo di Resia (Reschenpass). Both river routes offer breathtaking Alpine scenery combined with flat, easy cycling along the rivers. The video starts in Innsbruck and takes you to Merano and Lago di Garda to Verona. It then continues east to Vicenza and Padua to finally follow the perimeter of the Venetian Lagoon up to Venice. The total route from Innsbruck to Venice is 700 km.
