Start in the center of Sölden and pedal up to the glacier road via Außerwald and Innerwald. Continue for about 700 meters, before taking the forest road to Gaislach/Silbertal. It's a beautiful, lond and partly steep climb up towards the culinary stops Sonneck, Silbertal and Gaislachlam and further to the entry of the Nene Trail just before the mid-station Gaislachkogl. 

The black Nene is superfun – for those who really know how to handle their bikes! It's rocky and slippery in the first, open part, and then, when you enter the forest it gets even more challenging with massive routes and tight sections. It finally threads into the Broate Line or the Schteckler Trail that you take you back into the valley. 

 

Please yield to hikers!

Safety information

The Nene Trail is a black natural track – and pretty tricky and challenging. Only for technically skilled riders!

 

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.

-> Please note that the natural trails in the BIKE REPUBLIC are all shared trails. Always yield to hikers and give a friendly greeting.
