Our bike highlight, the "HillClimb" in Brixen im Thale, will be even bigger and more varied than before this year.
Instead of just one pro class, there will be an additional backpack class that has something to offer for everyone. Whether on a gravel bike, e-bike or even with a bike trailer, everyone can put their skills to the test and try out the popular HillClimb route.
On just 6 kilometers, countless serpentines and bends lead from the village center to the sunny high plateau of Hochbrixen, directly to the beautiful Filzalmsee. The riders conquer about 500-meter of altitude on their way. All along the route and at the finish arch, there are waiting fans who can watch the race with excitement.
In addition to the race, there is an exciting supporting program for participants, spectators and visitors alike.
Bike-events for everyone!
Bike squared in Brixen, Kirchberg and Westendorf
As a specialised bike-region, the townships of Brixen im Thale, Kirchberg and Westendorf not only offer optimal service and a wide range of trails and tours, but also shine with premium and attractive events revolving around cycling and mountainbiking. The HillClimb in Brixen im Thale is the absolute highlight of the season for all bikers. This year, there are various categories in which everyone can take part . New this year is the "Bike & Fly Festival", which perfectly combines the two sports of biking and paragliding.
The HillClimb in Brixen im Thale
Bike & Fly festival in Westendorf
Biking has already firmly established itself in Brixental Valley & paragliding is also becoming increasingly popular. The breathtaking mountain landscape of the region offers the perfect setting for both sports.
The combination of bike & fly makes it possible to explore the surroundings from a variety of perspectives. This is exactly what Fly Tirol, "Morgensonne - Rent a Bike" and the Bergbahnen Westendorf want to show guests and locals at the Bike & Fly Festival in August.
The event will take place at the Alpenrosenbahn cable car in Westendorf, which is also the perfect starting point for both sporting activities.
There will be plenty of opportunities to get to know the sports better and an exciting supporting program with first-class catering and musical accompaniment will round off the entire event perfectly.
