Trail adventures between Austria and Switzerland
The Silvretta Bike Arena Ischgl/Samnaun forms the heart of the biking paradise of Paznaun.

Whether you are an ambitious mountain biker or a leisure cyclist - everyone will find the right route here.

The Gravity Card - More trails, more fun
Since summer 2025, bike fans in Paznaun have been able to enjoy a special highlight: the Silvretta Bike Arena Ischgl/Samnaun and the Silva Trails in Galtür are now part of the Gravity Card. This membership gives bikers access to a large number of trails and lifts in the region - for an even more comfortable and varied riding experience. Whether you are an experienced mountain biker or an occasional rider, the Gravity Card gives you the opportunity to use the region's full potential and explore even more trails.
New trails from summer 2026
From summer 2026, the trail network will be specifically expanded and three new trails added, which will deepen the offer both in terms of riding and content and appeal to different skill levels. The Kli Zeinis Trail in Galtür is deliberately designed to be beginner-friendly: harmonious curves, a moderate gradient, the open high mountain landscape and a bridge crossing over a mountain stream create an overview, safety and a steady rhythm - ideal conditions for collecting your first trail kilometers above the tree line.
The new Birkhahn Trail, on the other hand, is aimed at more experienced bikers and combines flowing passages with more technically demanding hairpin bends and challenging sections. Thanks to its variable connection, it can be flexibly combined with existing descents. The offer is complemented by the Höllkar Trail, which rounds off the route network of the Silvretta Bike Arena Ischgl/Samnaun and makes the transitions between the routes easier.
