The BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN is a nation of unity. We don't care where you are from, what level you ride, how you look, whether you are big or small – you're a BIKE REPUBLICAN! And we also bring together the lines: for those who are really fit and technically skilled, the Long Line Rotkogl is just a dream.

You start at 2.600 m with the spectacular OLLWEITE LINE, move on to the surfy OHN LINE and finally finish with the BROATE LINE.

Author’s recommendation

For drinks and food stop at the Rotkogl hut at the top, the Hühnersteign in the middle or in the Pumptrack ROLLIN in the valley (or all three).

Safety information

Well it's more than 12 km long – so you have to be fit (physically as well as technically) to ride the Long Line Rotkogl. There are several pretty challenging sections!

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.
