Saalbach-Hinterglemm and the valleys surrounding the Zell-am-See region offer some real hidden gems for road riders. A superb network of purpose built bike paths provide a closed road experience to explore the forests, lakes and rivers through the valleys. For more of a challenge riders can tackle epic climbs including Dienten Saddle or the world famous Grossglockner – the highest paved road in Austria.
With hundreds of miles of gravel roads and trails across the resort, Saalbach-Hinterglemm is a paradise for gravel and adventure riders. Our routes will give you the chance to explore the hidden beauty of the Austrian Alps providing fun and challenging courses to suit all abilities. Gravel routes coming soon.
CHOOSE YOUR BIKE: A gravel bike is the go-to bike for the gravel rides. However there are no limitations. A ‘cross bike, mountain bike or a road bike with gravel-proof 32mm+ tires (with tread!) will also do the job. Not got a gravel bike? No problem: we’ll have a fleet of gravel bikes available that you can hire.
As well as epic riding, the Global Bike Festival will also offer epic racing. Whether you are a mountain goat or live for the downhills there will be a competition made for your skills. Race for glory against friends and the GCN/GMBN/EMBN team with prizes and bragging rights up for grabs. Additional races will be announced over the coming months...
