パラ公園のバイクパーク・トップ13

There's hardly a more fitting name for a trail. Especially when combined with the Great White, it's an iconic combination. The Dark Side of the Moon starts just below the Rothorn cable car mountain station and leads through the eponymous stone desert down to the avalanche barrier and over to Gredigs Fürggli. The trail's "red" rating on Trailforks is fitting. Along the way, the occasional rock roll or natural wall ride offers the opportunity to spice up the trail experience a bit. All in all, a beautiful high-alpine trail in a bizarrely beautiful rocky landscape. https://youtu.be/ZSADGyXU3HQ?si=1mFee_OkU0PJuD_n&t=112

We're approaching the end of the tour. High above the Zügen Gorge, there's another glimpse of the famous bridge featured in the Home of Trails video with Danny McAskill.

One of the most interesting highlights, but the entire Alps Epic Trail is incredible. A must-do for any mountain biker!

On this trail you can enjoy squirrels and local fauna. Please respect the hikers too!

Bridge over an incredibly deep and very narrow gorge of the Landwasser (Zügenschlucht). And far below, the stream rushes. Looking down can make you dizzy. If you pass by Wiesen train station, you should definitely go to the bridge. It's only a few steps, but it's definitely worth it.

Here you can see exactly what daring things Danny McAskill has already done...

There are two ways to reach the Parpaner Rothorn: either by taking the cable car or by embarking on a challenging and strenuous hike. If you choose the latter option, you'll need sturdy footwear. Surefootedness and a head for heights are also beneficial on the ascent, ensuring you reach the summit safely. Next to the cable car station, there's also a panoramic restaurant where you can recharge with fine dining after a strenuous hike.

Awesome bike tour with everything you need. From trails to a leisurely ride along the river. Highly recommended. Also a great view of the Landwasser Viaduct.
