Innsbruck Roundtrip
Ride around “The heart of the Alps” on the Bike-Trail-Tirol

Always in touch with the main Alpine crest this tour connects Innsbruck with the Mountain Bike regions of Ziller-Valley, the Silver region of Karwendel, Wipp-Valley, Stubai-Valley and Sellrain-Valley (Kühtai).



About 300 kilometres in distance, 6000 metres in altitude difference and additional to that many terrific Downhill Trails – that’s what’s waiting for those who are already great Mountain Bikers or those who want to become one. Not only will you see natural but also cultural and historical highlights.

On your way you’ll see Maria Waldrast – founded in 1622 it is the highest cloister of Tyrol.
This place of pilgrimage is best known for its healing water-well, the “Marien-well”.
They say not only is the water of this well healing but also does it make people more pretty...

We don’t know which effect it has on your physical shape so find out and tell us afterwards

 

Features
Physically challenging tour (especially the first two stages) at low technical level and easy to ride surface
