In mountain biking the level is specified in riding technique and physical condition. Both can be selected individually. The appropriate level refers to the person and is in relation to the actual trail quality, deviations due to situational conditions can occur. Either way, I will always respond to your current condition in the situation.
Riding technique – skills
Technique | Beginner | Advanced | Experts |
Requirements: | For beginners, families and children with basic knowledge in mountain biking | For advanced mountain bikers with experience | For mountain bike experts with a lot of experience and good riding technique |
Trail quality: | Well paved, non-slippery, not very steep trails and roads without steps (if possible not asphalted) | Whenever possible, non-asphalt paths and smoothly rideable trails. Challenging sections (loose ground, steep ramps, rolling steps and tight curves are possible), pushing passages are rare and short | Technical demanding paths and trails (steep ramps, loose ground, larger steps, partly blocked, tight curves or switchbacks), obstacles, longer pushing passages and carrying sections are possible |
Hazardous areas: | Rarely dangerous areas, exposed sections are secured against falling | Dangerous areas, exposed sections and alpine hazards are possible | Dangerous areas, exposed sections and alpine hazards are frequent |
Physical condition
Here your condition is evaluated on the basis of a daily stage
Condition | Easy | Medium | Heavy |
Length: | ≤ 40 km | ≤ 50 km | > 50 km |
Ascent: | ≤ 800 m asc. | ≤ 1200 m asc. | > 1200 m asc |
Duration: | ≤ 4 h | ≤ 5 h | > 5 h |
