- In this episode, I take on Saalbach's 'Challenge,' where in one day I ride over 5000m of descent through, Saalbach, Hinterglemm, Leogang and Fieberbrunn's MTB trails. This is a great day out on the bike and I can't recommend taking it on this summer enough, it's a brilliant day out!

Le passage sur le chemin en bois est magnifique.
Belle vidéo et merci pour le partage.
Saalbach and the other trail parks look amazing! would love to go there, gondolas up, panoramic views and miles of flow trail down - perfect! Thank you for sharing Scotty enjoyed watching really well made video 🙌😁
AMAZING! i go there often Skiing and don't recognise anything haha, what a difference without snow. If only all the Scottish Ski resorts invested more in MTBing, outwith the mediocre Ski seasons. 🤙🙏
Great timing, looking forward to getting to Leogang even more 😊
Very nice, love it!
Been going through your video's and you put out some very good content about all these amazing stunning locations.
Hope to complete the Big 5 challenge myself next year.
Love your content!!
Thanks a lot Dave! You’ll love it, it’s a challenge alright but a brilliant day out on the bike…
The scenery alone would be worth the trip. Then to layer mountain biking on top...epic!
Amazing vid! Love Saalbach! Hoping to bike there in September again 👌🏼😎
When’s the best time to go? Does it get busy there?
SiiiiiiiiiiiK! Bucket list trip for sure!!!
Living in Belgium not far from Brussels. This is my summer escape ! Saalbach or morzine/lesgets. Mtb Heaven
100% agree with you!
Sooo nice! My beautiful homecountry! (: I cant wait to ride there again. Hacklbergtrail is the best.
In october I am coming to live in Austria (carinthia in weitensfeld im gurktal). Hopefully I can make some new friends and riding buddies!!
The ski challenge is also pretty cool, follows roughly the same loop. If you go full gas it takes you a good 5 hours.
Great Video! But you missed the really interrestng parts of the XTrail.
Hello 👋 Scotty ) nice video 👍 beautiful
The road from Saalbach's Panorama to Fieberbrunn is mostly a descent, right? Is this part fairly quick to complete? If starting from Saalbach, maybe I should start from this part, then Leogang etc and save the Saalbach valley part to the end, so that in case of not making it on time the consequences would be less expensive than getting stuck on Leogang :) ?
Anyway, amazing, thanks for sharing.
Yip it’s pretty quick to get down and I’d recommend doing it that way if I was doing it again…
Hello
It possible to ride from Saalbach to Leogang and back with dh bike?
Yes it is! There’s a couple of small climbs in there but it’s possible same on the way back!
From what I can see there are only open trails and almost like roads, because I didn't see anything from DH tracks through trees. I could be wrong but from what I've seen I have no opinion.
Oh man you’re so wrong, there are so many trails, plenty of different options, huge sections of singletrack and even optional downhill tracks in both Saalbach and LeoGang! It’s a MTB’ers paradise. 🙌
@@ScottyLaughland thanks for the information, i m thinking visit for the first time Saalbach next summer. Thanks brother i will sourch more information about saalbach.
Check out some of my other videos from there, there’s sure plenty to ride!
@@ScottyLaughland thanks.
This is 2022 right?
Could a beginner give this a go? I have ski’d the circuit but am starting out as a mountain biker
I’d recommend having a little bit of experience before taking this on!
@@ScottyLaughlandthank you! I’m having some coaching in the UK and love Saalbach in the winter. Maybe I’ll go to experience some of it and then go back to do this!
@@ScottyLaughlandor maybe I’ll attempt it over a couple of days!!
Hi! Where do you recommend staying as the best base/hotel or area? Thanks!
There’s many great hotel options that are all bike friendly in Saalbach and Hinterglemm. Look for any that offer the joker card as this will get you some discounts off lift passes. As for a recommendation, it’ll come down to what your spend is. All the ones I’ve stayed in have offered fabulous Austrian hospitality!!
how much did you pay for a lift card?
You’ll have to check Saalbachs lastest orchestra but if you stay in select accommodation with joker card you get a discount and even a free uplift included!
Not much tech going on
On this loop, it’s primarily bike park! There are some really technical lines that were used in the EDR on the Saalbach side such as the X Line and Bergstadl…
