Mountain biking in the Alps

Experience an extended mountain bike tour through the breathtaking landscape around the Spullersee lake. Start your ride in Lech and ride to the toll station in Zug. From there, the route takes you along a paved road to Gasthof Älpele and then uphill to the dam wall of Lake Spullersee. Enjoy the view as you circle the lake before continuing uphill to the Ravensburger Hütte. From there, continue to the Alpe Brazer Staffel and finally to the Stierlochjoch. The ride through the serpentines of the Stierloch offers an exciting adventure before you head steeply downhill towards Zug and finally arrive at the fish pond. You will be rewarded with numerous refreshment stops on this tour. 

485 vertical metres and about 3 km long sounds like a considerable ride. And believe us, it really is. The so-called Burgwald Trail winds its way alongside the toboggan run from Oberlech down to Lech am Arlberg and demands something from both bike and biker. The route was planned with fun in mind for both mountain biking experts and intermediates alike. And if the bike trail itself isn’t enough, there are various extra features that have been installed along the route. If you want to take the easier route, then you can avoid these passages by following the “Easy Line”.

Extensive but rewarding - this is how the Bike & Hike summit tour to the Saladinaspitze presents itself. Physical fitness and experience are required! The route takes you by bike to Zug, towards Lake Formarin and on to the Freiburger Hütte. From there, the challenging trail leads through a green high valley, a wide rocky field and further along a narrow ridge up to the Saladinaspitze with a peak on 2,238m. Magnificent views as far as the Klostertal and the Montafon as well as a heart-shaped hole in the rock face reward the ascent.

The tour begins by bike in the direction of Zug, past Lake Formarinsee to the bike destination, the Freiburger Hütte. The route then continues on a footpath through alpine meadows along the Masonweg and follows the ridge below the Gwurfjoch. Cross a gravel field until you reach the foot of the mountain. From there, a steep ascent leads to the summit, with some easy climbing sections, some of which are equipped with rope protection. It is important to be sure-footed and not afraid of heights - the company of a mountain guide is recommended!
