About 15 km and 650 meters of elevation gain and loss through the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN including stops for refreshments and a flowing pleasure route back down to the valley.
The start and finish point of the Enduro Stabele F is the Freizeit Arena in the center of Sölden. Facing the Freizeit Arena, start to the right and follow the Ötztal Cycle Path 11 to the valley station of the Gaislachkogelbahn. Upon arriving at the Gaislachkogelbahn, turn right to reach federal highway B186, follow this road until the turnoff to the Glacier Road from the highway. Then turn right to go up the steep Glacier Road in the direction of Hochsölden. Watch for signs pointing to a (steep) gravel path to Gampe Thaya and Gampe Alm. These are not only at the highest point of the tour but also beautifully located with a magnificent view of the BIKE REPUBLIC (and beyond). After stopping, continue to the Schlender Line and then toward the valley station of the Langeggbahn, which leads you to the entry of the OHN LINE – one of the most flowing trails in the BIKE REPUBLIC that brings you to the blue BROATE LINE or the more challenging Schteckler Trail, which lead back down to the valley.

Safety information
The OHN LINE is a blue line, also suitable for trail beginners. Approach the varied route carefully.
In the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN it's all about the shared fun in bike sports – no matter what your riding level is. Be considerate of each other and support one another. Also behave respectfully towards all people on the mountain and in the valley – and to nature.
-> Stay on the paved and signposted paths. Do not ride over open meadows!
-> Avoid locking the rear wheel and thereby help to preserve the trails.
-> Be considerate of animals & close the pasture gates. Cows can always be standing on the trails and lines. Ride carefully and keep your distance!
