Unbelievable, but those mountain bikers seem to multiply! Especially when the offsprings are old enough to sit on the saddles themselves, everybody's faces gleam with excitement as the first joint tours are being planned. When the kids are a little older, around 12 years, you can start the real mountain bike challenges. But still, the tours should neither be too long nor have too much elevation gain. And the more scenery and interesting stuff is offered along the way, the longer the motivation will hold on.

Mountain roads, paths through the fields, lakes and forests – the world is an adventure park, which is easy to discover on a mountain bike. All these tours lead you up to alpine huts, some bigger, some smaller, some managed, some unmaintained. So you always have a final goal to reach. And who doesn't go all the way, when you already know by the end awaits you delicious food, drinks and maybe some ice cream?

    Short and crisp. Here it goes neatly up but with a few breaks, the tour is also good for children, as it runs on easy paths. The rush on the Gindelalm is not always so great on nice days. And if you take the few extra meters up to the Gindelalmschneid, you can enjoy the fantastic view in peace and relax in the grass.
