Trails

The lift system is open from the 19th June – 27th September 2009 and we run our holidays between these dates. The full trail network will be accessible between these dates, though some parts of the upper trails may contain snow in the early summer.

Åre Bike Park is Scandinavia’s biggest bike park and already rated by MBUK as one of the top ten riding destinations in the world. Over 30 trails provide 40km of pure downhill and freeride mountainbiking heaven, with a total elevation of 870m. There is something for everyone; easy trails for absolute beginners right up to the ‘99 World Champs track raced by Palmer, Peaty and the boys back in the day that’ll have you wondering just how they made it down at race speed. There is also a slopestyle area with drops, fun boxes, wallrides and HUGE booters, not to mention North Shore, tight singletrack and wide open blasting. If you can’t find something you love and something that you can progress your riding on then it’s probably time to sell your bike and take up ping-pong. Put simply – come and ride Åre, you’ll love it.
