Start your mountain bike tour from the mountain station of the Ehrwald Alm Railway. In that way you will overcome the first hurdle comfortably and without any effort. In the 8-person cable railways there is also space for your bike without any problem. Those who are proficient ride straight off from the base station. After 400 constant and strenuous metres of altitude also the sporty riders arrive at the mountain station and can continue their tour. The transportation of mountain bikes with the cable railway is free of charge!
