The end of a legendary and really tough route: the downhill slope on Monte Tamaro is being closed. The reason for this is soil erosion problems. As a novelty for mountain bikers, there will be a charging station for e-bikes on Alpe Foppa and two maintenance stations, one on Alpe Foppa and one at the valley station of the gondola lift in Rivera. Parallel to the closure of the downhill route, there will also be no more day tickets for bikers for the gondola lift. Alternatively, a single ride with mountain bike transport is available for CHF 23, with a half-fare card at half price.

Todtnau is sending out much better signals: after eight years, the previous operator Arne Grammer is concentrating on his bike store based in Freiburg and handing over Bikepark Todtnau to Noah Grossman from the Freiburg bike school 2-Cycle. "After eight exciting years in Todtnau, it was time for me to move on. My second project, Bikeshop Freiburg, continues to grow and should now receive my full attention. With Noah Grossman, I'm handing over the bike park to a good friend who has known the trails in Todtnau for a long time and has great ideas - it's a good feeling to put your baby in such good hands," says Arne Grammer about his new work focus.

Noah Grossmann announces: "A dream come true for me! I learned to ride DH at Bikepark Todtnau, founded the bike school and rode to my first racing successes. For many years I traveled to mountain bike spots with and without my company 2-Cycle to find the best trails in the world. Now I want to transfer this experience to Todtnau and produce my own mountain bike paradise. We are already working very hard on it and have already made some great changes, but this is just the beginning!!!"

The 2018 season opening in Todtnau is planned for March 30, 2018. The 2-cycle team around Grossman has already put a lot of work into the store and the routes.
