The easiest trail in the Kronplatz family: Launched in mid-2015, it winds down the eastern face of the mountain from the middle station Olang 1+2 lift over countless bends all the way down to Casola-Gassl. Although it’s chock-full of easy jumps and low-banked curves, its ever-changing route layout won’t distract you from appreciating the stunning panoramic views – a perfect place to whip up an appetite for freeriding!
The Alpe di Siusi is probably the most ideal "playground" for bikers who want a relaxed tour combined with breathtaking views of the surrounding Dolomites. Europe's largest high alp offers not only breathtaking panoramas on this tour, but also a great mix of ascents and descents for pleasure bikers.
The counter-clockwise Sellaronda MTB Tour has a total altitude difference of approx. 1,020 m to ride uphill and descents that vary from single trails to gravel roads. It is therefore suitable for uphill cycling with or without pedal assistance/e-bike. The time required varies according to MTB riding ability: from a minimum of 6 to a maximum of 9 hours, including lunch break.
Nice tour in mountain bike in the side valley Weißenbach/Rio Bianco!
At the foot of the giants of the Dolomites, the Rosengarten/Catinaccio and Latemar, this tour leads over roots and stones. From Welschnofen/Nova Levante, the trail leads steeply uphill past Karer See/Lago di Carezza to the idyllic Mitterleger/Radura di Mezzo. Via paths through the Latemar forest, you reach the Karerpass/Passo Costalunga.
Tip: Ideal e-bike tour or for MTB enthusiasts who like to tackle altitude metres.
"One of the most beautiful trails in the Alps" – this is how Bike Magazine described the Montesole /Sunny Benny Trail in Val Venosta.
This trail is passable nearly all year round and takes you through the austere cultural landscape of Val Venosta’s Sun Mountain. You will not only enjoy the flowing passages, but also the fantastic panoramic views of Monte Tramontana and of the surrounding mountain peaks and glaciers. Start at the mountain station in San Martino in Monte and follow the asphalt road downhill. Turn right after 1.2 km and take hiking path no. 9 for the first broader warm-up trail passage. The main part of the trail with flowing forest floors and more difficult stone passages (partially S2) starts after a short asphalt road crossing at Birchaböden. Look forward to pure trail fun after a short crosswise drive on the Ratschillweg road to the newly built trail section with fantastic steep turns. The successive flatter, flowing “Share the Trail” section starts after a few meters in altitude and takes you along Piani di Annenerg. Continue until the suspension bridge, pass by the cairns and take the partially steep path no. 5 to Tiss. Variant: You can also take path no. 5A to Tiss, just before the suspension bridge. Return on the asphalt road towards Laces or Coldrano. Please note: “Share the Trail” sections for some parts, especially on paths no. 5 and 7. Please show consideration for hikers as they have right of way!
Route length in km: 36,4
Vertical climb: ascent 1.552m – descent 1.521m (the ascent with the cableway Aschbach/Riolagundo helps you saving 800 m of altitude difference in the ascent)
Surface: asphalt, forest path, cart path
Required technical skills: S0/S1/S2 – easy with 2 short Single-Trail-Sections S1/S2
There's nothing wrong with a bit of fun – it was this motivation which in autumn 2014 broke the ground for the Piz de Plaies trail in San Vigilio. The trail is filled to the brim with jumps and banked curves. It's only a short ride up on the Pedagà-Piz de Plaies cable car before the track winds back down into the valley on a mad series of bends. Not a single section of this trail is straight, so prepare for active riding and leave your fear of steep passages at home. It's a guaranteed buzz! Suitable for true pros and medium-advanced riders.
One of the most famous Mountain Bike tours on the sunny side of the Ahrntal valley with stunning panoramic views!

With plenty of jumps, bumps and bends in quick succession, this line is an “up-in-the-air” variant along the Furcia trail. If you’re not afraid to let go of the brakes and take off, you’re in for tons of fun on this trail.
Level: medium
An easy trail for the whole family of 3,600 meters leads from the modern Piz Seteur cableway down to the Plan de Gralba. The flowing track is the ideal starting point for those who want to improve their basic biking skills.

Wonderful mountain bike tour to the Pricheralm hut in the little mountain-village Weißenbach/Rio Bianco!
After this exhausting tour to the Malga di Morter mountain hut you really deserve a good hearty snack. The demanding gradient on asphalt road and then on a partially loose, steeper gravel path demands quite a bit from bikers. If you are an experienced e-mountain biker, you will do easier. Start at the Trattla sports and leisure center and turn right just before Burgaunerhof (1100 m) towards the beautiful Morter mountain hut (1900 m). From the end of the asphalt road, you always go uphill along the rushing Brandnerbach stream through the narrow, incised valley below the peaks Hasenöhrl (3257 m) and Zwölferkreuz (2512 m). You will be surprised at your arrival: You wouldn’t have expected this small, green and peaceful high plateau with the mountain hut situated on the hill and its many homemade specialties. Enjoy a hearty snack and have a nap in the lush grass to prepare yourself for the demanding descent on partially loose gravel that requires concentration. Having arrived at the valley floor, you can look forward to the delicacies of the strawberry valley such as strawberry cake, strawberry jam and a good coffee.
Tip: If you still have enough energy for a hike, you can climb up on path no. 14 to Cima Zwölferkreuz.
On July 15, 2017 opens the Cir flow trail. A sequence of bumps, parabolic and north shore, whose rhythm, along with an average slope of 8%, makes it almost impossible to use the brakes. Particular care was reserved for the bottom covered with a layer of binder. Some variants allow the most beloved to make some nice jump. The route runs from Dantercepies 2300 mt, reachable both by the cable car from Selva and the chairlift from the Gardena Pass (and then from Corvara with the Plans Frara lft), to the Gardena Pass at 2120 mt.

The Rock Line was created from the lower part of the Sky Line in 2024. Sky Line and Rock Line can still be ridden in one go. Just like the Ski Line, the Rock Line is steep and technically demanding and requires very good control, excellent jumping technique and safe driving skills. It starts at the middle station of the Plose gondola lift and ends just before the valley station.
Length: 2.43 km | Altitude difference: 473 m | Average inclination: 19% | Difficulty: black
The classic of the Val d'Ega, the Latemar Ronda, offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Dolomite mountains and is a dream tour for all those who want to get very close to the Latemar by mountain bike.
Going clockwise, the Latemar massif can be conquered also by trained hobby mountain bikers and bike-loving families on a full-day tour in 6 hours without any major climbs, but with two more challenging and steep descents. Begin this panoramic tour from the delightful villages of Welschnofen | Nova Levante, Karersee | Carezza or Obereggen.
ATTENTION! THE LIFTS TO THE LATEMAR RONDA ARE OPEN FROM MID-JUNE UNTIL MID-SEPTEMBER!
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.
Pleasant route across Montechiaro/Lichtenberg and the Platzhof farm into the 12er Trail.
From Prato/Prad, the gateway to the Stelvio National Park and to Solda/Sulden, you proceed across the Suldenbach streem to Agumes/Agums and from there via a beautiful meadow path with view to the fields, castles and summits of the Upper Venosta Valley in northerly direction to Montechiaro/Lichtenberg. Here starts the ascent on asphalt up to the Lichtenberg Fortress and then on gravel further up to Adelheid Schöpf Lechner from the Platzhof farm (1,354 m). After a nice snack (Brotzeit) with a view towards the direction of Sluderno/Schluderns and on the 3,202 m high Allitzer Spitz peak, you reach the highest point after a few metres further uphill. A flowy descent on narrow and wide trails (S1 and S2), with a few technical tight turns – no risk of boredom. From the Agumsbergerhöfe farms we carry on rolling, soon on tarmac back into the direction of the starting point to the interesting aquaprad National Park visitor center and look forward to a leisurely drink containing electrolytes.
Tip: The unusual name of the tour relates to a field name at the Agumser Berg mountain at the former climb from the Platzhof farm to Gawierg.
