Rote-Wand-Steig
Description
The tour starts in Wattens and you ride up the tarred road to Wattenberg. The very long tarred driveway leads past the Wildstättn lift and then soon becomes a forest road. The forest road continues uphill until it ends after a right-hand fork. Here, a narrow, almost unrecognizable track leads very steeply up the mountain. Further up, you come to the Rote Wand trail and can either descend it straight away or ride and push and finally just carry yourself up to the summit of the Rote Wand. The view up here is gigantic.
After a short rest, the very long descent on the Rote Wand climb begins. The upper section is very technical and not suitable for everyone, but it becomes very flowy from around 1900 meters above sea level. The descent to Wattenberg is endless. You cross the tarred road a few times and ride down to Wattens. The eternal ascent is rewarded with an equally eternally long descent.
Note: The route is located on Austrian territory and leads over routes that are not approved for mountain bikers. Riding this route on a mountain bike is the responsibility of each individual, in full awareness of the legal situation.

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.
Ride MTB GmbH was founded in 2001 (formerly Swiss Sports Publishing GmbH) and has been owned and managed by Thomas Giger since then.
