With its 7.5 km, the GAHE LINE is one of the longest and most versatile tracks in the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN.
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.
Good equipment rules in the BIKE REPUBLIC! We strongly recommend to wear protective bike gear (knee and elbow protection, helmet, back protector, ...) on all lines, trails, enduro tracks and mountain bike routes in the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN. The entire REPUBLIC is designed exclusively for good quality, modern standard mountain bikes.Welcome to the flow show! The GAHE LINE is a seemingly neverending ride (7.5 km!) from Hochsölden to Grünwald on the Giggijoch side of the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN. It starts above the treeline and takes you into the woods with numerous berms and rollers.
You can combine the GAHE with the OLLWEITE, the HARBE & LETTN LINE to the incredibly long (16 km!!!) Long Line Giggijoch.
Arriving by Train
Enjoy a comfortable and relaxing train ride to the train station in Ötztal Bahnhof. The public bus lines to all holiday resorts in the valley (direction Obergurgl) leave directly in front of the train station. The bus ride to Sölden takes about 1 – 1.5 hours.
All important details on bus timetables, direct connections and taxi services are available here.
There are a few parking spaces at the road toll station, not far from the access point of Rettenbachalm Trail.
However, we recommend that you either park at the Giggijoch Gondola or Gaislachkogl Gondola.
There are ample parking areas and covered parking garages at the base stations of Gaislachkogl and Giggijoch Mountain Gondolas. Parking is free of charge between 8.00 am and 7.00 pm!
