Flowy Trail Fun & Technical Challenges
UNIQA Trail
The blue UNIQA Trail winds its way down over 3,065 meters from the Unterwirt Hüttn to the Kirchheimerhof—offering a flowy, twisty ride. Although classified as "easy," it is a more demanding version of this category, requiring a bit more skill—comparable to a "challenging blue" ski slope. This makes it the perfect choice for families and bikers who have already gained some initial experience on singletracks.
Trail Overview:
- Difficulty: Easy+ (higher skill requirements)
- Length: 3,065 m
- Start & Finish: From Unterwirt Hüttn (1,340 m) to Kirchheimerhof (1,060 m)
- Target Group: Bikers with some singletrack experience
- Cost: Free of charge (if you provide your own ascent)
Unterwirt Trail
Taking things up a notch in terms of difficulty, the red Unterwirt Trail leads down into the valley. Spanning 838 meters, the first section features five precisely crafted wooden structures (totaling 118 linear meters) as well as a 5-meter-long wooden bridge. It is the perfect trail for advanced bikers and pros looking for a real challenge!
