Banklsteig
Description
The tour starts in Grünwald and you ride along the tarred road to Gfrill. Here, the forest road branches off to the left in the direction of Weisssee. The route now climbs for around 4.5 kilometers until you turn sharp left into the trail at a junction. The trail is rather flowy with lots of stones and rocks, it becomes a cart track and then a trail again. At the end, you come out of the forest in Kirchwies and meet the tarred road of the driveway. After 50 meters, take a sharp right towards Banklsteig. This soon begins as a cart track, then becomes a climb. The trail rides very exposed along the rock. After the traverse, it turns into an avalanche path. It is particularly steep and in parts not rideable. Serpentines with lots of foliage, loose scree underneath and soft ground demand increased attention. It is very difficult to get a feel for the ground. After this passage, it is no less steep in the sparse beech forest. Hairpin bends on rocky ground continue to challenge you. You come out at a forest road junction and ride on to the left. You soon turn right onto the Dürer Weg. This corss country trail has a few nasty ramps and a few cool downhill sections and ends after around four kilometers in Laag. From here, keep left and ride very steeply back up to Grünwald.

Background to Ride MTB
Ride MTB is dedicated to mountain biking. With the maps Ride Trail Maps and Trail Books and the print magazine Ride, it has played a formative role in alpine mountain biking for many years and has shaped it like few other organizations.
In addition to the publishing business, the company is now also active in product management and operating entire mountain bike projects. These include the tourism project Ride Travel and the development of modern and authentic mountain bike offers such as the Bahnentour in Davos Klosters, Engadin St. Moritz, Lenzerheide or Aletsch, as well as the creation of multi-day tours such as the Postauto-Tour or the Hüttentour.
