Mountain bike tours

TOURS, TRAILS & CHEESE DUMPLINGS

That is mountain biking in Innsbruck. First you pedal hard uphill. Then you enjoy a summer bike stop at one of the many mountain huts and alpine restaurants that are often located right on the route or may even be your destination. Refuelling à la Innsbruck: Kaspressknödel cheese dumplings. Are your calves burning? If so, simply relax and enjoy the views of the surrounding mountains a little longer before getting back on the saddle.

Route description: this circular route starts at the bottom lift station of the former Patscherkofelbahn cable car (902 metres above sea level). From there, it leads uphill along the Heiligwasserweg trail to the Schwellerkapelle chapel and then along Römerstraße road to shortly before the Grünwalderhof hotel. The route then leads south along a forest trail, past the forest playground and the Patsch wood storage area, before turning to head south-east along a forest trail to the final section of the Patscherkofel race course and on to Heiligwasser. From Heiligwasser, you follow the paved road downhill to the Teehütte hut. From there, take a sharp right and follow the old bobsleigh run to the new Olympic Bobsleigh and Luge Track facility and then downhill to the finish area. Finally, head east along Römerstraße road to Badhausstraße road and then continue downhill to the starting point.
