Description
The Grütschtrail offers advanced bikers a real challenge. The terrain changes constantly. Everything is present, from dusty ground to stones, roots, and North-Shore elements.
The trail is steep and the curves are tight. Nevertheless, the route rides incredibly smoothly. "As the name «Grütsch» in Bernese German already suggests, it is a large mountain slide. The large boulders in the lower section were a huge challenge for the shaping crew. Since blasting was not an option, the crew simply built Northshore structures over the piles of stones.
The aerial cableway conveniently brings bikers to the start at Grütschalp.
If you get hungry or thirsty, sit down on one of the terraces of the base restaurants on Dorfstrasse.
