    What you get on this round? 24,1 km, 1.037 m of up- and downhill, jaw-dropping views and huts, huts, huts!  Start in the center of Sölden and pedal up via Außerwald and Innerwald to the glacier road. After about 700 meters, you turn into a forest road heading for Gaislach/Silbertal (take the mountain bike route 644). It's a lovely, quiet uphill till you get to three huts: Sonneck, Silbertal and Gaislachlam. The final climb is short, but supersteep and will eventually bring you to the mid-station Gaislachkogl.  Past the middle station and the stone arch, the Bartiges Bödele Trail starts on the left side, ending at the toll station on the glacier road. Continue at Hühnersteign with the NEW Schlender Trail, which leads to Gampe Thaya and Gampe Alm (refreshments!). At Gampe Alm, switch for a short section to the Gampe Alm mountain bike route (643), which descends back to Hochsölder Straße. Once on the road, turn left for the final ascent leading to the entry of the Leiterberg Trail. Here, the challenging Leiterberg Trail (refreshments!) takes you through the forest. Finally, the LETTN LINE will lead you back to Sölden and the Giggijochbahn. 

    Please yield to hikers!

    Safety information

    The red Leiterberg Trail is the most demanding track of this route with massive rocks and roots.

     

    The BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN is all about coming together and having the best time on your mountain bike – no matter what your skill level is. So always take care of each other, show respect and support – also towards nature and all other people out there in the mountains and the valley.

     

    > Please only ride existing, signposted trails and never trespass open meadows.

    -> Avoid skidding, don’t cut switchbacks & leave no trace.

    -> Stay alert, never scare animals and always close the pasture gates. In the REPUBLIC there’s always a chance of cattle standing on the trails and lines. Ride carefully and give them enough room.

    -> Please note that the natural trails in the BIKE REPUBLIC are all shared trails. Always yield to hikers and give a friendly greeting.
