This challenging mountain bike tour takes us to the Ochsenlenke, where we have a beautiful view of the surrounding mountain massifs at over 2500 m.

On this tour we first cycle from Gais to the Lobisa Schupfn (hay huts), which together with the mountain scenery in the background make a beautiful picture. Then we cycle further uphill and master another 900 metres of altitude difference up to the Ochsenlenke, which should make even trained bikers sweat. At the Ochsenlenke, we allow ourselves a breather and enjoy the panorama before we take a long descent through the Hasental and then return to Gais via a cycle path.
