Val Venosta has two new bike trails

As if there weren't already enough single trails in Val Venosta/Vinschgau, the people of Silandro/Schlanders and Laces/Latsch have grabbed a shovel and created two flow trails on the slopes. They are called "Sunny Benny" and "Holy Hansen" and are reserved for mountain bikers. Ride has already ridden both and provides its readers with the GPS tracks.

The newly built routes are not yet marked on any maps or in any tour books, but are among the best routes between the Resia Pass and Merano/Meran. They are single trails that were created especially for mountain bikers: small berms, lots of flow, plenty of variety and suitable for both professionals and less experienced bikers. It is immediately apparent that experienced mountain bikers and a number of interested officials were responsible for the trail construction.

The aim of the new routes is to offer less experienced mountain bikers a great single trail experience. Although the existing trails are all top class, they are sometimes very challenging. Benny and Hansen want to guarantee downhill fun for everyone. In addition, the existing trails are to be relieved somewhat, as there are now many mountain bikers in Val Venosta/Vinschgau, mainly on routes that are also used by hikers. Conflict zones can thus be defused without having to issue a bike ban."Sunny Benny" route from St. Martin to Latsch:
