The cycling path follows the old Roman route from Augsburg in Germany through the Meraner land to Venice.
The Via Claudia Augusta is the old Roman road, which leads from Donauwörth (also in Germany) via the Alps to the Adriatic Sea. Today, the Via Claudia Augusta is very popular as a cycling and hiking trail. The road was completed in 47 A.D. under the emperor Claudius of Altinum.
However, his father, General Drusus the Oldest, started the work in 15 B.C. This means that the road was built over a 60 year period.
