Mountain biking

You're not likely to encounter the legendary robber knights of Matsch on this tour, thankfully. But you'll be exploring the area where they once wreaked havoc. Your Matsch Valley adventure begins at the Mals train station.

And it's straight uphill from there. After gaining some elevation, you'll reach the Vinschgau…

September 14, 2025,Bikewoche in Prad

Today is the first day of our Wolfhausen senior bikers' bike week. Into the Matschertal valley, at the back of which is a large, fantastic hotel. A short trail section and a slightly longer, more difficult section. The rest is forest and roads.
