Tschentenalp

The Tschentenalp lies steeply above Adelboden and is the destination of this classic mountain bike tour. The descent leads back to Adelboden via a great single trail.

Description

The ascent to Tschentenalp leads via Ausserschwand and then follows the mountain road over the north side of Tschentenalp. The path only gets a little rougher towards the end, but is still easy to ride. You could also take the gondola lift for the ascent. At the mountain station, first take the high-level trail and then head for the singletrail descent via the Blachti-Alp. The trail winds its way through the steep mountain flank to Allebach, which you now follow on the right bank back to Adelboden.

Is there an update on the condition of the trail?

I can only agree with ryanrocket here. Anyone who likes a few gravel hairpin bends will get their money's worth here (sarcasm). This tour can be safely crossed off the list...sorry

Guys, you can cancel this tour.
The once beautiful trail from the Tschentenalp was completely ruined last year. The beautiful section in the photo was "renewed" with coarse gravel and significantly widened. The rest was also happily "gravelled over". Any forest road is more fun.
