Bikepark Špičák is one of those places I wouldn’t recommend for beginners. It’s great fun for those who enjoy speed and multi-meter jumps.

Alte Westwand is a 6-pitch route on Wachthüttelturm, graded 5- and considered a classic in the area. The most interesting part is the airy traverse on the second pitch, but there’s also some nice climbing higher up.
Direkte Neue Richterkante is a 10-pitch, well-bolted climbing route with several sections of grade V and VI difficulty. Climbing it was an interesting, full-day adventure.
The bike park is located on the slopes of Geisskopf (Geißkopf) mountain near the town of Bischofsmais, close to the Czech border. The trails are not long, ranging from about 600 meters to 2.5 kilometers in length, but they are diverse and packed with interesting features.
Parzęczew – a small town near Łódź. This is where the longest pumptrack in the world is located. Great fun for children, but also a great place to practice biking techniques.
Sölden (and the whole Ötztal Valley, actually) and Zillertal are two of the largest and highest ski resorts in Austria. I visited the former this year and the latter last year. I would only like to return to one of them.
The bike park in Sölden is the highest of the Austrian bike parks and one of the largest. The trail starting at an altitude of 2600 m is breathtaking with its views and there are so many lines that one day is not enough to get to know them all.
Bike parks, skill parks, singletracks, unofficial enduro trails… there is everything here. No matter what level you are at, you will find something for yourself in Lower Silesia.
There is an easy flow trail, there are natural enduro trails, there is a black DH trail. Something for everyone, I had a good time, but it could be better.
There are few places I can say I don’t want to go back to, but I can say that about the bike park in Kitzbühel. The bike park is so big that one day is barely enough to ride everything, but unfortunately the trails are mostly just boring.
