Mountain bike holiday in Brixen
Mountain bike holidays and e-biking in: South Tyrol / Italy
City. Countryside. Mountains.
That’s what a mountain biking holiday in Brixen is all about – right in the heart of South Tyrol
A cycling region in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Dolomites? It’s bound to be brilliant! In Brixen, you’ll find everything that makes a mountain bike holiday in South Tyrol so special. When cycling in Brixen, you head straight from the town to the mountains: discover exciting contrasts around the Plose, ranging from relaxed valley rides to flowing trail adventures with panoramic views of the Dolomites. From urban city vibes to alpine bike parks – Brixen pulsates with the South Tyrolean way of life and colourful cultural events.
Brixen – an ideal location in the Dolomites and a long mountain biking season
It doesn’t get any more central than this! Brixen lies at the geographical heart of South Tyrol. And thanks to the mild climate, you can enjoy a particularly long biking season here, from early April right through to late November. The Brixen Bike Park is the place to be for mountain bikers of all levels – from beginners to pros. Three of the five singletrails were designed by Gravity Logic and offer a taste of Whistler, Canada – with panoramic views of the Dolomites, views of the old town and airtime at 2,000 m. The Rock Line and Sky Line also offer thrilling trail experiences – a flowing uphill ride over 6 km and 1,000 metres of elevation gain from the mountain station to the valley station.
If you prefer to take it easy, explore the South Tyrolean Cycle Path – or tackle one of the well-maintained forest trails to earn yourself a WOW view. As diverse as the region and its cyclists may be, everyone comes together to celebrate at international bike events such as the bike festa South Tyrol.
Fancy even more variety on your MTB holiday in Brixen?
Haven’t had enough variety on your cycling holiday yet? Then head off for a change of scenery on the sunny Natz-Schabs apple-growing plateau! Let off steam in a unique panoramic setting high above the Eisack Valley. Or follow relaxed alpine paths at the entrance to the Puster Valley – all the way to one of the rustic huts, where a South Tyrolean snack awaits you. You can refill your bottle for free with pure mountain spring water at one of the 48 REFILL your Bottle drinking fountains in town and on the mountain – so you can cycle sustainably and plastic-free on the Plose.
Before, during and after, mountain bikers meet in Brixen’s old town – to enjoy, sample and feast. For amidst the cobblestones, narrow lanes and Cathedral Square, historic charm, vibrant events, South Tyrolean cuisine and a cool biking spirit blend together to create a lively urban experience.
