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.

What interesting you can find in Jägihorn via ferrata in Switzerland? What does Lower Austria offer to hikers? Which via ferrata in Rax is the best and why did the Brenta Dolomites delight me so much? You will learn all this by reading the posts on this website. And that’s not all! A few years ago I went on via ferrata also in the Lienz Dolomites, where I climbed, among others, the great via ferrata Panorama and in the Dachstein area, where I faced the difficult via ferrata Johann and Irg 2. I climbed Breithorn, which is considered the easiest four-thousander in the Alps, and recently I was mountainbiking in bike parks in the Alps. Read what MTB trails are offered in Austria’s Saalbach and Leogang and the French 3 Valleys.
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.
Looking for the best motorcycle events in Austria? Finding a great event to attend has never been easier. We must note that there aren’t many events to discover and attend, but the actual ones are so popular and attractive that you don’t want to miss them.
I visited La Plagne Bike Park during my August trip to the bike park in the 3 Valleys. On the last day, bored with the trails in Les 3 Vallees, we went to see another place and it was a very good choice. The trails in La Plagne have a different character and were more fun for me than in 3 Vallees.
Dozens of routes to be explored. A huge area of three Alpine valleys and everything on one cheap pass. It sounded great! Unfortunately, that’s just what it sounded like…
Saalbach, Hinterglemm, Leogang and Fieberbrunn are towns between Salzburg and Innsbruck, promoted as the Austria’s largest bike region. I spent a week there in July this year and there is indeed a lot to do there, although under the slogan “largest in Austria”, I expected it to be even bigger.
I have had the opportunity to walk the hanging bridges on via ferratas already several times, but I definitely had the best time on Jägihorn! The bridge is really long, hangs high above the ground, the surrounding views are beautiful and its swinging while passing provides extra emotions :)
For a long time I could not convince myself to go to Breithorn (4164 m). I haven’t been on any four-thousander before – except for Toubkal, where I didn’t reach the summit ;) so it would be a pleasure to reach some, but hiking the ski runs didn’t seem interesting to me. I don’t regret, however. I gained new experiences, and the views, despite these ski runs, were pleasing to the eye.
