Great bike trails
This must be the third, maybe the fourth summer when I come here for the bicycle rides ... trails starting at the top of the mountain toward the base. There are three trails, each having a different difficulty level. ...kind of trail/enduro/downhill. The most dificult trail (red I think is its colour and name - the red trail) is getting improved every year. So, best wishes to those who take care of it.

What's more, the cable car is really useful and modern, with only 6 minutes travel time. If you are lucky enough, you can see the entire view on the mountains on top, which is amazing! I'd recommend it (especially in this time period, when there is...
