Hohe Tauern Bike Basecamps

Location-based trip: 5 days – 4 nights – 3 tours

The Hohe Tauern Bike Trail offers everything an alpine mountain bike classic needs: varied stages, impressive landscapes, and new valleys to explore each day within Hohe Tauern National Park.

For those who want to enjoy the experience without changing accommodation daily, the Basecamp Packages provide the ideal solution. They combine selected trail stages with additional mountain bike tours – all starting from a single, fixed location.

The region from Hüttschlag to Königsleiten is divided into eight bike areas. Each package includes:

  • two nearby trail stages

  • one additional tour in the region

This creates a flexible mountain bike holiday in Salzburg – comfortable, diverse, and based in one accommodation.
