Lenzerheide: BIKE KINGDOM opens its doors
The MTB region of Lenzerheide in Graubünden proclaims itself the "Bike Kingdom" - a kingdom for mountain bikers - with a video featuring Thomas Genon that is well worth watching.

Lenzerheide in Graubünden has long since made a name for itself with the legendary Bike Attack race from the summit of the Rothorn and a grandiose World Championship organisation in 2018. Now the Swiss are going one better. When they open their doors to bikers again this summer, it will be under the name "Bike Kingdom".

To this end, not only has the already extensive, 900-kilometre-long high mountain trail network towards Arosa, Chur, Albula Valley and Alp Stätz been expanded by Lots of flow kilometres extendedbut also developed an app. This allows you to click together tours and trails, find refreshment stops and shops, collect points for every kilometre of trail you complete and much more. A virtual game is also integrated, in which clans can come together to battle it out in six different districts. So if the coronavirus now also thwarts your summer travel plans, you could at least immerse yourself virtually in the Kingdom Trails and significantly shorten the waiting time until the opening. A bit of Game of Thrones perhaps. Just take a look. Summer is coming!

Gitta Beimfohr joined the BIKE travel resort during her tourism studies when the Strada delle 52 Gallerie on the Pasubio was closed to mountain bikers. Since Gitta crossed the Alps twice at racing speed, she has favoured multi-day tours - by MTB in the Alps or by gravel bike through the German low mountain ranges.
