Adrenaline kick on 2 wheels

What is conquered on skis in the winter, is tackled in the summer on a trail, enduro or freeride bike. The conditions and the terrain in the ski area are just made for the singletrails in the summer. This means that even during the hot season you can be transported to the top in the gondola lift. Helmet on, glasses on, protectors buckled up and rucksack donned. Let’s go. Hop on the bike – nothing now stands in the way of fun. On the Kitzsteinhorn there are three sporty freeride trails to choose from: the Geißstein Trail, the Wüstlau Trail and the Bachler Trail.
And so you definitely have the right equipment, here is a little checklist to help you ride properly: helmet, gloves, arm and knee protectors, rucksack, First Aid kit, spare inner tube, repair kit, tyre levers, a warm change of clothing.
