Mountain biking is one of the most popular kinds of summer sports, and its bringing more and more people under its spell – from little ones to grownups. Many forest paths and single trails around the Pustertal valley offer tours of every degree of difficulty. Anyone who does not want to plan the tour on their own can join a guided group. The equipment is crucial for a successful tour. Anyone who does not have his or her own bike can turn to one of the local bicycle rental locations.
Anyone staying in Bruneck has THE downhill run of the Kronplatz region right in front of their noses. It is only 4 km (2 1/2 miles) to Reischach, the valley terminal of the Kronplatz 2000 cable car. Once on top of the Kronplatz, there is a choice of four descents: the Herrnsteig, Furcia, Gassl and Piz de Plaies. The Outdoor Center with bicycle rentals, protective equipment, and guides is located right next to the valley terminal of the cable car.
