The longest route of the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN! The Long Line Giggijoch links 5 trails and offers a whopping 16 km from 1,300 m down into the valley.
The Long Lines of the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN combine several lines of varying difficulty levels. Especially the OLLWEITE is quite demanding. You need riding skills and, above all, a lot of stamina.
In BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN, it’s all about shared fun in bike sport – no matter what riding level you have. Be considerate of each other and support each other. And behave just as respectfully towards all other people on the mountain and in the valley – and nature.
–> Stay on the paved and signposted paths. Do not ride over open meadows!
–> Avoid blocking the rear wheel and thus help preserve the trails.
–> Be considerate of animals & close the pasture gates. There can always be cows standing on the trails and lines. Ride cautiously and keep your distance!
Being well equipped rules! We recommend wearing MTB protective gear (helmet, protectors for knees, elbows, back, etc.) on all lines, trails, enduro routes, and mountain bike routes of the BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN. All trails are exclusively intended for use with mountain bikes that meet today’s quality standards.Stretch your neck once more, shake out your arms, massage your thighs – 16 kilometers await the BIKE REPUBLIC riders on the Long Line Giggijoch. But no worries, there are of course plenty of rest stops and places to eat along the route.
It starts at the Bergstation Langeggbahn (2,663 m) with the red OLLWEITE LINE. After about 2 km, you turn off at the famous Rock Garden onto the blue TROALN LINE. It offers a short breather and takes you over to the Giggijoch side. There you’ll find the HARBE LINE, which is relaxed to ride but also demanding due to its exposure. In Hochsölden, you then take the blue, 7.4 km long GAHE LINE, and finally the LETTN LINE to the valley station of the Giggijochbahn.
