ZELL-GERLOS ZILLERTAL ARENA – OUTDOOR ARENA OF SUPERLATIVES

The Zell - Gerlos Zillertal offers no less than 325 kilometers of first-class biketracks between three summer mountain tracks, 40 Alpine huts and a casual mountain atmosphere - there is plenty to discover and cycling fun for downhillers to pleasure cyclists, beginners to pros.

Panoramic views are as guaranteed as happiness at the summit. From relaxing valley roads to exciting forest bike trails and challenging single trails, such as the Wiesenalmtrail, whose 5.2 km route can be reached by the Rosenalmbahn cable car. Here you will find everything your MTB heart desires, with also wonderful opportunities for quiet family – bike tours. If you have yet to get to know the area, the Waldspielplatz mountain bike practice trail in Gerlos-Gmünd is the perfect place to start.

1, 2, 3 … lots: Tyrolean variety in the trails

There really isn’t just one Isskogel trail. On the contrary, the descent is divided into several variations – the names of the “5 in 1” signature trail are promising and give an advance insight into the different characters: there is the Iss-Flow, the Iss-Tough, the Iss-Shore, the Iss-Vertical and, last but not least, the Iss-Natural. The name says it all, the main line is the Iss-Flow with its endless turns and traverses in the valley – perfect for warming up and also for beginners earning their first tracks. Along the way there are always new junctions leading to the other Iss routes. Simply amazing in experience and variety! And all this among the high mountain peaks with WOW panoramas….
