DIPS&DROPS – The First Bike And Ski Hub Mountain bike holidays at the bike hotel in Flachau
The hotel is still closed for the 2024 bike season. Reopening is in December 2024.
The ‘new’ mountain bike hotel in a class of its own: under the name ‘DIPS&DROPS’, the venerable Tauernhof in Flachau is coming to life again. What skiing is in winter, mountain biking is here in summer - no wonder, as the Tauernhof, which opened in the early 1970s, has been a mountain bike hotel for over thirty years. This new start - with a preopening in December 2024 - not only brings a new name but also an even more specific focus on mountain bike holidays. DIPS&DROPS - derived from the English names of two off-piste passages on the bike trail or freeski sections in open terrain - promises a closer connection between people with the same passion: mountain adventure.
Active families with kids from the age of ten will find everything they need here, as will seasoned bike pros. The location also scores extra points: DIPS&DROPS is situated directly on the Enns cycle path, just 20 minutes from the Reiteralm trails, and at the entrance to the Stoneman Taurista, as well as the starting point for 40 mountain bike and e-bike tours of varying levels of difficulty in the heart of the Salzburger Sportwelt. If that's not enough, you can let the hotel's own guides take you to the region's hot spots or try out the test bikes in the hotel's own Haibike test centre.
What makes DIPS&DROPS special: A personal and professional atmosphere. Guided tours and individual training sessions. Indoor & outdoor activities, regardless of weather. Honest cuisine. Casual bar. Speed and flow. Ice bathing in the river and chilling by the pool. And in the indoor relaxation area with a rooftop pool, even the most tense muscles can relax. The culinary programme at the bike hotel is also relaxed and casual: choose between the breakfast buffet, bistro, restaurant, and steakhouse as the mood takes you. Enjoy à la carte today, and tomorrow, perhaps a 4-course menu with wine pairing.
