Description

This tour is not for soft calves, but something for those willing to suffer and e-bike explorers. The tour begins in Samnaun Dorf. You ride on wide gravel roads and have to conquer some cutting ramps. In winter the ski run "Duty Free Run" traverses this area. Following Zeblasjoch a single trail begins – and now things become really steep. Hats off to anyone who can pedal this trail without an e-bike. After Paliner Kopf things get easier again and the path takes you along the border ridge to Viderjoch. Don't forget to take a break to enjoy the magnificent panoramic views! Down to Samnaun Laret you pass via the enduro and freeride trails built by Claudio Caluori (No. 697) – pure flow pleasure.
