Mountain biking and the best mountain trails

There are excellent mountain biking opportunities throughout the whole Europe. In the European mountains every cyclist will find something what suits them.
What the majority of bikers will appreciate the most are the Alps with their endless trails and farm roads, gorgeous scenery as well as affordable prices, rarities of the European cuisine, comfortable and inexpensive lodging including campgrounds and B&Bs. All these things will provide you with many unforgettable experiences.
Let’s start from Switzerland that has recently created an elaborate network of numbered routes for bikes. All of them are well-signed with red arrows. Most roads are paved, but unpaved ones may appear as well, so you'll need a mountain bike or hybrid. Berner Oberland, the home of stately peaks Jungfrau and Eiger is the most visited and beautiful region of Switzerland. You'll find there endless biking opportunities, which can be explored with a little help of the excellent guidebooks and maps. In Gstaad, the main gondola lets riders carry their bikes to the top of the mountains. Views from the top are really charming.
The undoubted Mecca for bikers in Europe lies in the northeast of Italy, in the Dolomite Alps surrounding the Garda Lake. Its warm Mediterranean climate guarantees you excellent weather, palm trees around the lake and a long holiday season. The biking is fabulous, with trails winding through the hills and mountains, vineyards and groves, with views of lakes, villages and mountain valleys. There are so many first-class trails that even the most demanding adventure seekers will find something for themselves.
