Paradise for everyone — mountain biking in the Dolomiti Paganella

"Ultimate Enduro Experience" - on this tour is the name program! Breathtaking views and mega trails make for an unforgettable day trip that means fun for experienced bikers. This is also the responsibility of the six mountain railways that we have integrated into this tour: you do the biggest chunk of the 3,760 vertical meters for you and make sure that you can concentrate fully on the long runs - the longest (from the Cima Paganella to Fai della Paganella) is a whopping ten kilometers long and takes you 1,000 meters into the valley. Of course you pedal on this tour but also yourself. You earn about 1,000 meters in altitude by your own efforts, which is quite demanding.Our "Ultimate Enduro Experience" is also a challenge for experienced bikers. For the most part you cycle over suspended bike trails and the long runs require a certain level of fitness. In addition, you are usually traveling at high altitude: the Cima Paganella is at 2,125 meters the highest point of the tour. Nevertheless, this tour always keeps true enjoyment moments ready. Breathtaking views of the valley or just a cozy break in a small, Italian café - with all the bike action, the Dolce Vita is not too short. Maybe you even feel like an animal trip to the zoo of Spormaggiore, where you can observe bears, wolves, lynx and other alpine animals.Incidentally, if the whole tour is a bit too long for you, you can simply shorten it by, for example, skipping the round to Spormaggiore. So you can easily create your personal enduro experience that will give you an unforgettable day in the Dolomites.

After all, the lifts in the area do a lot of work for you: Before you really get going, take the Pradel cable car up into the mountains, later you take the two cable cars up to the Cima Paganella.

The trail is not called flowtrail for nothing.It's easy to ride from top to bottom, but thanks to countless well-built curves and waves as well as a few tables, you'll have a lot of fun.

Of the three "zones" of the Molveno bike park, the Molveno zone is the lightest. The two mountain railways "Molveno - Pradel" and "Pradel - Tovre" bring you up, on different, flowy trails you come down again. One of these trails is the "Big Hero", the easiest downhill trail in the park, which is also ideal for beginners and children.The "Big Hero" starts right at the mountain station of the "Pradel - Tovre" chairlift, where you can comfortably get up to 1,520 meters before the bike action begins. The trail meanders below the lift route to approximately 1.8 kilometers 130 meters in the valley. Numerous beautifully built adjacent curves provide plenty of driving pleasure.
