#hansthetrail

Hans is, in a way, an extension of Franz. Painstakingly carved and hewn into the slope over the course of countless hours of manual labour, it boasts bends, waves and steep sections galore – all of which come in rapid succession. This ever-changing trail requires full concentration from top to bottom: pure bliss for experienced mountain bikers.

Beginners beware: Chances are that Hans might be a bit overwhelming, so we recommend staying on the original Herrnsteig trail.

This variant leads to one of the most famous photo spots since the advent of social media. The ascent is only for really fit bikers and even with an ebike, the slope is only suitable for trained legs. But at the summit you are rewarded with a wonderful view of the Odle peaks, the Sella massif and the Sassolungo. But beware: if you cycle up the steep gravel roads, you also have to cycle down on them, and that requires a lot of strength, both uphill and downhill.

The trail “Ödli” is ideal to enjoy the Dolomites in all their beauty. Ödli means eyes in the Ladin language and it is with their own eyes that taking the easiest of the Bike Beats trails, bikers will have the opportunity to admire the magnificent scenery.

Freeriding is one of the most adrenaline-pumping ways to ride a bike. Mountain bikes are used to descend mountain paths with bumps, jumps and various natural obstacles such as roots, stones and bushes.
In the Gardenaccia Freeride Bike Park, starting from the mountain station of the Gardenaccia chairlift at an altitude of 1,750 m, two routes have been created:

•  the first one, more difficult, is for bikers who already have good riding skills, looking for strong emotions
• the second is easier and suitable for less experienced bikers.

The start of the bike park can be reached by taking the Gardenaccia chairlift from La Villa.
At the Gardenaccia chairlift there is the possibility to rent freeride bikes.
