Saarbrücker Hütte Tour

The route starts at the valley station of the Valisera Bahn in St. Gallenkirch (Silvretta Park Montafon) and leads upstream past the Rifabecken to the end of the village of Partenen. The ascent is via the Silvretta High Alpine Road. The upper part of this route is especially recommended only for very experienced mountain bikers. Gradients of up to 20% on very coarse gravel require not only good fitness but also a lot of balance and good riding technique. After completing the effort, you can enjoy the incomparable panorama of the Silvretta massif. At the highest managed mountain hut in the valley, the Saarbrücker Hütte, there is time for a hearty refreshment. The descent goes back along the same route over the Silvretta High Alpine Road to Partenen and then to St. Gallenkirch.
