Mountain Biking
Biking in the
mountains around
St. Anton
Tyrol is a first-class biker area
with more than 5,200 kilometres of official mountain-bike
routes, naturally this includes
St. Anton am Arlberg. The
“Best of the Alps” resort offers
a rewarding mountain-bike
trail network with approx. 200
kilometres. All trails are very
well signposted and scenically a
pleasure! The trails throughout
Tyrol have the same marking
as the ski runs showing the
level of difficulty. Around St.
Anton mountain bikers will
find something for every taste:
starting with easy trails through
lush meadows and shady forests
through moderate climbs to
challengingly steep climbs for
the hard core bikers.
All trails start at the Arlbergwell.com and are signposted
uniformly. These trails are not
only open to bikers but are enamoured by mountain runners,
Nordic walkers and tri-athletes
too.
Tips for bikers in the
mountains
It is recommended to take a
water bottle along on all tours
just as appropriately advisable is
a spare inner tube, First-aid kit
and repair set.. Particularly in the
high alpine area warm clothes
(everyone knows the strong air
streams as one races down hill)
Windcheater, rain protection fit
comfortably into a little rucksack.
Everybody should also wear
cycling gloves and bicycle helmet.
