The alternative to the classic 5 Valleys Mountain Bike Tour for anyone based in Bludenz. Over the course of 4 days, you can explore a different valley in the Bludenz Alpine region each day, starting from Bludenz. Panoramic views and singletrack trails included. The tour is also designed for e-bikes: there are no sections where you have to carry your bike, and plenty of charging stations are available.

Mountain bike, helmet, rain and sun protection, as well as food and enough water for each day’s stage. For multi-day tours, we recommend: a change of clothes, toiletries, tools and a spare inner tube, a first-aid kit, a map or route description, and other personal items.
Tips
The 5-Valley Tour is a moderately difficult mountain bike tour and is therefore not recommended for absolute beginners. However, it is certainly manageable for novice mountain bikers. If necessary, difficult trails can be bypassed, and if it really isn’t possible, you can always push your bike for a short distance.
The tour is also designed for e-bikes, and there are plenty of charging stations available.
