The Tour
The blue EEBME LINE is the gateway to the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN: Through the legendary stone arch, you dive into the trail dream of the flowiest nation of the Alps.
[eːbm̩ / eːbm̩ə] An eebmer path in Ötztal dialect is not a straight path, but one without incline or decline. There is some downhill on the playful EEBME LINE, making it ideal not only for beginners but also for having fun. It starts directly at the Gaislachkogl mid-station. After the first section, you can branch off directly onto the TEÄRE LINE – the surf route of the BIKE REPUBLIC. Those continuing along the EEBME come out of the forest slightly above the Langeggbahn valley station and can enter the OHN LINE after a short transfer section – or take the Langeggbahn up to the OLLWEITE LINE. The EEBME is the perfect entry for several reasons: it leads into the heart of the trail network of the BIKE REPUBLIC and flows so smoothly that it offers the ideal warm-up ride.
And this is how it looks: VIDEO EEBME LINE!
There are numerous huts and alpine pastures in the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN. On the EEBME, among others, is the Almstube at the mid-station.
