"Big5" - this is the unique challenge in Leogang that will give you a breathtaking day on the bike: on an action-packed XXL tour, you can really run it and enjoy the best trails on five mountains in the region. It is mostly downhill - five cable cars do the way up for you. An unforgettable bike adventure with true freeride spirit.On this tour you will get to know the best trails in the region. Saalfelden Leogang is a true paradise for mountain bikers. The Epic Bikepark Leogang is world famous, but even the more remote trails will inspire you. And that's not all: on the way you'll probably always stop with your mouth open, just to enjoy the impressive Alpine panorama. Or to treat yourself to a cozy and enjoyable break: various rest stops on the way always the opportunity to do so.Even if the mountain railways help you along the way, this tour has it all, because you are riding in alpine terrain and on demanding trails. It is therefore advisable to take it easy. Better plan a whole day for this great tour - if you're faster, you can just take the gondola up and drive your favorite trails again.

More mountain bike action concentrated in one place can hardly be found anywhere else: The Bikepark Leogang offers beginners and professionals alike the best conditions to experience an unforgettable time on the bike. Kids can get a taste of the sport, downhillers can hone their skills to perfection, freeriders can experience a lot of airtime and enduro riders enjoy miles of flowtrails. Sounds good? It is! So grab your bike, sit down in one of the two lifts and off you go!This tour is a good example of how you can take as many trails as possible of the bike park under the tunnels and even make the right kilometer. This is made possible by the dense route network and the 8-seater Asitzbahn: so you can always be transported up in a few minutes and try on the way to the valley every time a different trail. The list of trails included in this tour is long: you'll ride the "Schwarzleo Trail", the "Steinberg Line by FOX", the "Matzalm Trail", the "Hot Shots - fired by Gopro" and the "Flying Gangster". And those are by no means all the trails the bike park has to offer. So your only problem will be the notorious agony of choice.Incidentally, Bikepark Leogang is one of the first and largest bike parks in Europe. Here you do not rest on deserved laurels, but is constantly working on new highlights. The new pump track is a good example. It provides the perfect setting for turning a few laps into the twilight after a great day on the bike! Incidentally, if you like downhill action at its finest, you should also make an appointment in the calendar in red: From 4 to 6 September 2020, the UCI Mountain Bike Downhill World Championships will take place in Leogang for the second time.Tip: "Hot Shots - fired by Gopro" and "Flying Gangster" have a lot of fun. Here you should definitely go with full visor helmet and protective clothing. If this is too wild for you, there is a great alternative: after the Schwarzleo Trail, you can walk about 200 vertical meters uphill and then whiz down the Forsthof Trail Tour, before you come to the Asitz or Steinbergbahn, which bring you to the Steinberg Line.

On the day of arrival or departure, there is always this problem: Actually, you are totally in the mood to sit on the bike immediately (or briefly again) and enjoy a few trails. But most of the time is missing and it's just not worth it anymore. The Bikepark Leogang has the perfect solution to the problem: the Asitz gondola lifts you just under 1,000 meters in a few minutes. And with our tour suggestion, you do not even have to think about which way to go down. Because we have already met a fine trail selection, which results in a wonderful program to retract or farewell (or just for the small downhill in between).Right at the beginning Hangman I is waiting for you. On this trail it rappels pretty, so you're guaranteed awake! Half way, you can breathe deeply, enjoy the beautiful view again, shake your fingers and give you a refreshment in the Stöcklalm. Then it goes on: On the Flying Gangster you try airtime. Alternatively, let yourself be shaken up on the parallel World Cup track, or in the lower part on the challenging Bongo Bongo with tight turns, steps, root and stone passages, and North Shore Elementem.By the way: Even if the time is really tight, you can still enjoy a bit of fun on the bike by rolling a few laps over the bike park's new pump track. Built by pump track guru Claudio Caluori and his crew, it is paved and works well when it rains.Tip for saving foxes: When buying a lift day pass, this is already valid the day before from 15 clock.
