    You start at the Freizeit Arena on asphalt along the river to Kaisers. You take the left towards the federal road and pedal through a short unlit (!) tunnel. Right after, you turn left to Granstein. The asphalt turns into gravel and leads you to the Maria's hut. Stop here for fantastic food and a fantastic view, then put on your protection gear and enjoy the  rocky and rooty Leiterberg Trail

    After the ride through the woods on the gnarly red trail, you can take the flowy LETTN LINE from Leite down into the valley.

     

    Please yield to hikers!

    Safety information

    The Leiterberg Trail is a natural trail that can be pretty gnarly at times. 

     

    The BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN is all about coming together and having the best time on your mountain bike – no matter what your skill level is. So always take care of each other, show respect and support – also towards nature and all other people out there in the mountains and the valley.

     

    > Please only ride existing, signposted trails and never trespass open meadows.

    -> Avoid skidding, don’t cut switchbacks & leave no trace.

    -> Stay alert, never scare animals and always close the pasture gates. In the REPUBLIC there’s always a chance of cattle on the trails and lines. Ride carefully and give them enough room.

    -> Please note that the natural trails in the BIKE REPUBLIC are all shared trails. Always yield to hikers and give a friendly greeting.
