"THE CHALLENGE - Bike your limit" is the name of the challenge in Austria's largest bike region that only the best can master. Who can manage to ride the entire area around Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn in one day? Thanks to modern lifts, it can be done in one day! Be prepared for pure trail pleasures in Saalbach Hinterglemm and challenging bike park lines in Leogang. Fieberbrunn, known for its enjoyable biking, provides fun and scenic views while riding the new Schweinestberg-Trail.
"THE CHALLENGE - Bike your limit" can be started from any village or lift.
Usually, the challenge also includes the Schweinestberg-Trail in Fieberbrunn, which was newly built in 2022. This year, however, it can only be reached after an ascent of around 400 metres, as the Streuböden lift is being rebuilt.
A successful participation in this year's challenge is therefore possible without the Schweinestberg-Trail due to the new construction of the Streuböden lift.
Here's the interactive map with the up to date status of lifts, lines & trails.
