Autumn on two wheels
Golden trails, clear air, pure power
Autumn gold beneath three-thousand-metre peaks. Feel the energy build as you e-bike through Pitztal. Which route will you choose?
The leaves crunch beneath your tyres as you traverse the amber-coloured trails. Up here, at nearly 1,600 metres above sea level, the air already hints at winter. In this moment, you feel strong; each powerful pedal stroke is matched by steady stamina as soaring 3,000-metre peaks fill your view. Your e-bike supports you, pedal by pedal, metre by metre. Which way will you go next?
Energising Alpine trails
Pitztal offers an extensive network of mountain bike and e-bike routes that wind through the valley and climb high into the mountains.
- The valley’s central artery for (e-)bike adventures is the Pitztal Bike Route. At around 40 kilometres long with an impressive 1,350 metres of elevation gain, it offers a remarkable blend of forest roads, natural trails, and far-reaching views.
- A firm favourite is the route from St Leonhard to the Tiefentalalm. From the church in St Leonhard, follow the gravel path to the pilgrimage church of St Maria am Bichele, then follow the signs towards the Tiefentalalm. You’ll reach it after roughly 5.5 kilometres and about 500 metres of ascent.
Time to relax and recharge
In autumn, the valley glows in warm copper and gold, while on the peaks, the first snowflakes are already softly falling. This world of contrasts is the perfect backdrop for your e-bike rides. Every pedal stroke takes you deeper into the beauty of the Kaunergrat Group, as the wind in your face brings back that familiar rush of freedom. After your biking adventure, return to the Sportalm and put your feet up in the Nature Park SPA, where you can look forward to a panoramic sauna, an infinity pool, and many other highlights.
During your autumn holiday at the Sportalm, you’ll feel a very special connection to the mountains: steadfast, proud, and graceful. The hotel embodies power, energy, and harmony with nature – much like the ibex, our spirit animal.
