MTB tour on the Mendola ridge

MTB Tour am Mendelkamm

Difficult MTB tour over the Mendel Pass, Penegel and Gantkofel, over the Felixer Weiher to the Gampen Pass, which rewards you with some very scenic viewpoints.
Instead of taking the (asphalted) road up to the Mendel Pass, you can also take the Mendel cable car (-800 metres in altitude).
This tour requires a good to very good level of fitness and knowledge of cycling technique.
