Gaislachkogl Single Trail between 3.058 m and 2.170 m

Breathtaking views of the Ötztal Alps coupled with adventurous, recently installed elements - such as roll overs, flow masters and a wall ride - make this mountain bike route a truly exceptional one at the heart of the Ötztal Valley.

In the early summer the 4,600 m long Gaislachkogel Single Trail was installed by the mountain bike experts of Ötztal Tourismus. Measure-made wooden constructions and newly shaped turns in wildly exposed spots guarantee ultimate fun and action for advanced mountain bikers. This unique Single Trail starts at Gaislachkogl peak (3,058 m), towering high above the village of Sölden. Right at the beginning mountain bikers have to conquer a steep downhill section followed by some vertical gravel areas before they can indulge in lush green meadows and gently rolling slopes.

Expert equipment
Appropriate sports equipment is absolutely required for everyone who dares to try the new Single Trail. Mountain bikes must have shock absorbers and special downhill tires. Protective gear - back support, shin and arm guards, plastic armor to protect against injury - and helmets are also a must!

Rules
This trail is a high Alpine mountain bike route with a level of difficulty between intermediate and very difficult. Every mountain biker should ride downhill according to his abilities and skills. Bikers should always respect nature, wildlife and grazing cattle.

Risks and insurance
The Gaislachkogl Single Trail is checked and maintained by the staff of Ötztal Tourismus on a regular basis. But there is always a risk of damaged trail sections and unforeseen obstacles. Mountain bikers should always control their speed. Special insurances must be provided by the bikers themselves. No liability will be assumed for accidents or injuries and damages. The use of the Single Trail is at the mountain biker's own risk.

The Single Trail is not suitable for walkers or hikers. The surrounding area boasts an infinite number of signposted walking and hiking routes.

Unlimited mountain biking fun
A wonderful trail for expert high Alpine mountain bikers. A truly unique paradise for all those in search of the ultimate adrenalin kick amidst Tirol's scenic mountains. The Gaislachkogl Single Trail guarantees fun, action and stunning views!
