Basel | Ride MTB

Basel has plenty of attractive mountain bike trails close to the city - Chrischona, Gempen and Blauen are just a few of them. The Basel Rundtour combines these highlights into what is probably the most attractive city tour that Basel has to offer - provided you are in good shape.

The route from Olten to Basel is a very beautiful, technically moderate singletrail tour through the Solothurn and Basel Jura. Starting in Olten, you cross the Jura all the way to Basel in one day. The tour is characterized by very impressive urban-rural contrasts.

The Gempen is a mountain bike gem in Basel. With its many single trails, the local mountain is a very popular mountain bike destination.

The Birstal to the south of Basel is a densely populated region, but it also provides a good base for bike tours. The Birstal route takes you around the region from Basel and rides back along the banks of the river.
