MTB tours and trails

The Ödli and Cör trails join at 1700 m of altitude to form the last section of the trail, the Avëna blue trail. Like a vein flowing through the last stretch of the forest until it reaches the valley, the blue trail includes an endless series of very exciting and difficult bends where expert bikers can show their skills.
This medium-difficult trail extends for a little more than 2 km and it is the section in the park with the highest altitude difference, 283 m.

The route starts directly at the Weißbrunn Lake and leads in a slight ascent over the forest road to the Fiechtalm, which is open from the beginning of June to the end of October.

On this MTB or E-MTB route, all the queens and kings of the Dolomites can be seen. The Marmolada - Queen of the Dolomites, the majestic Sassolungo and Sassopiatto, King Laurin and his Rosengarten/Catinaccio, and the legendary Sciliar. The route starts from Val Gardena, passes through the Seiser Alm, descends into the Val di Fassa, and then returns to Val Gardena over the Sella Pass. Due to the length of almost 100 km, it is recommended to ride the tour with an E-Bike. Those who prefer to ride without an electric motor should consider splitting the tour into two days.

The tour starts in Ortisei (easily accessible from Selva di Val Gardena and S. Cristina via the Rodaval cycle path): the Ortisei-Seiser Alm cable car takes you to Europe’s largest high-altitude meadow, the Seiser Alm. Over lush alpine meadows, you ride with a view of the Sciliar – the symbol mountain of South Tyrol – across the Seiser Alm. Numerous mountain huts invite you to stop for a break. The route continues to Compatsch, where the descent into the valley towards Siusi allo Sciliar begins.

From Siusi allo Sciliar, the bike path continues to St. Konstantin. Shortly after the Gasthof zum Schlern, the ascent to the natural swimming lake Völser Weiher begins, where you can cool off if needed. The tour continues towards Ums (a district of Völs) up to the Schnaggenkreuz and finally onto the main road heading towards Tires at Rosengarten and St. Zyprian. It is worth taking Italy’s first Cabrio cable car to Frommeralm (those entering the tour from Welschnofen, below the Rosengarten Massif, take the Laurin 1 cable car to Frommeralm). The MTB path continues towards Karer Pass, where the descent into the Val di Fassa begins. The level bike path leads through meadows and forests along the Avisio River to Pozza di Fassa, and continues to Campitello di Fassa and Canazei. The bike path offers stunning views of the Dolomites and passes through lively villages. From here, you get breathtaking views of the surrounding Dolomites. The Queen of the Dolomites – the Marmolada, with its 3,343 m – can also be admired from here, along with the Sassolungo, Sassopiatto and the Sella massif. In Canazei, for the summer of 2025, the tour will include the use of the Canazei-Pecol and Toè lifts. Two great trails, the “DoubleU” and a section of the “Infinity”, lead from the top station of the Toè cable car to Pian Frataces (Lupo Bianco). With the Pradel-Salei cable car, we overcome the last altitude meters before heading back to Selva di Val Gardena via the Sella Pass, the Stone City, and the fantastic flow trails at Plan de Gralba. From here, Ortisei can be reached again via the “Rodaval” cycle path.

What goes up comes back around

Uschi branches off the Richard-Anton trail and is brand-new: Hand-crafted in 2020, this trail through the woods is one to watch out for: It starts off with a climb to its highest point, after which it's bend after bend, roller after roller and some more tricky challenges that require creative solutions.

Delightful mountain bike tour (number 262) through meadows and forests to the Wurzer Alm Mountain Hut.

The Herrnsteig trail's little brother too is packed with flow and curves. But while it's nowhere near as wild and bumpy, its 124 bends and turns between the top of Mount Kronplatz and Passo Furcia make it at least equally winding and dizzying. To get back up to the top, simply hop on the Ruis cable car at Passo Furcia. The big challenge on this trail is to master it without pedalling and with as little use of the brakes as possible. It is ideal for medium-advanced and pro bikers who wish to get to most out of an active riding style.

For this tour you’ll need plenty of leg power if you want to experience the reward of a thrilling descent.

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.
