Mountain biking

MTB in Val d’Ega/Eggental: a great tradition. The region is a pioneer in South Tyrol. Trails for leisurely bikers and downhill pros, panoramic tours over mountain passes, along shady forest paths, or across boundless Alpine pastures – two wheels will take you almost everywhere here. Some mountain lifts, such as the one right by Alpenrose, transport both you and your bike. Once at the top, you can still break a sweat! That’s because of the mild climate from April to October.

Our insider tips

Our professional bike guides know Val d’Ega/Eggental inside and out. Of course, they will be happy to recommend suitable tours for you and even help you plan your outing! In addition, our tour maps contain many an insider tip.

What do I need on my biking holiday?

Studded tires are recommended for biking in the Dolomites. Semi-slick tyres are only suitable to a limited extent for tackling the sometimes steep downhill and uphill sections. Fullies are to be used on hard trails. With us, the sun shines almost all the time, so from April to October a pair of biker shorts and a short-sleeved shirt are all you need. But you should not underestimate the high altitude and intense sun: Arm and leg warmers, sunscreen, and rain gear are definitely needed!
