Trail description
The route begins at the bottom of the Silvrettabahn A1 cable car in Ischgl. From there, take the cycle path running parallel to the main road towards Mathon. After just a few metres you will reach a bridge crossing over onto the right-hand side of the Trisanna river. Cross this bridge and continue along the "Rossbodenweg" trail through the opn fields of the Paznauner Böden. Riders then cross the village of Mathon. After the small settlement of Valzur you will ride along the main road (Paznauntalstraße) for a short time. When you get to the car park at Schermboden, turn off the main road and head past the small villages of Piel and Tschaffein as far as Galtür. This is where riders turn around. Head back on the left-hand side of the Trisanna river. Near the village of Tschaffein take the bridge across the river. The final section is then through forest and meadows along the banks of the river back to Ischgl.
