Single tracks and forest roads set riders’ pulses racing. In Molina the route starts to climb steeply via Pagig and Triemal to Skihaus Hochwang. As the climb is made on the tarred Alpine road, it is negotiable in every weather. Once you arrive at the top, treat yourself to a well-deserved break. In addition to food and drink, the Restaurant Hochwang offers a gorgeous view of large tracts of the Schanfigg. After a short break, you head for the Peisteralp. There is a stretch of about 300 metres at the start which is not ride-able for all cyclists but can easily be managed on foot across a meadow. From here the route continues along the Schanfigger Höhenweg and attractive single tracks to the Peisteralp.
