New mountain bike routes on Dürrnberg: A paradise for cyclists

On the Halleiner Dürrnberg, the construction of new mountain bike trails is sought, which should offer both a wide and a demanding offer for cyclists: inside. From family -friendly routes to challenging descents, a variety of options are being planned. Julian Wielens, the chairman of the Mountainbike Association Salzburg, emphasizes the importance of taking into account the interests of all athletes: inside, in order to enable an environmentally friendly and legal mountain bike experience near the city.

Before the first bikes can roll over the new trails, various permits must be obtained. In particular, the nature conservation procedure is still pending, since the departure ramp on the German side of the Dürrnberg needs the approval of the Berchtesgaden district office. The city of Hallein and the tine lifts are waiting for the administrative hurdles to be overcome this winter. These permits are crucial to set the respective departments of the authorities on the plans.

economic advantages for the region

Mayor Alexander Stangassinger sees this project a key role in the future of tine lifts. In view of the shortened winter seasons due to climate change, it is necessary to rely on summer operation. "With this step, we secure the future of the tine lifts on Dürrnberg," he recently told S24. An economy of the new offer is also being aimed at.

The expectations regarding mountain bike traffic are high. One expects up to 15,000 mountain bikers: inside annually, which could lead to income of around half a million euros due to a ticket price of 30 euros. These income would help compensate for the financial deficits that were created in the last snowy winters. The economic aspect is an essential part of the project to revitalize the region through sport and support local business.

The complete and comprehensive concept for the new trails not only promises an increase in leisure activities, but also a strengthening of the regional economy. The interest of the mountain bike community and the support from those responsible show that preparations are on the right track.
