The "Pierergut - Trail" is built in such a way that due to the low slope of less than 10% on average, even less experienced bikers can have their fun.

Immediately after the Aflenz - Bürgeralm trail, the Pierergut trail follows directly after the Pierergut inn (www.wirtshaus-pierergut.at). On this completely shaped trail, one curve follows the other, and on the few straight sections you can improve your technique on tables and pumps.

If you leave the brakes open, it goes and the more nimble bikers can take out the feeders all the way to the top. The length is about 1km, the altitude difference is about 200hm.

Infrastructure: self-repair stations and bike wash.
