Biking in the Saas Valley

Biker's paradise

The Saas Valley is a real insider tip in the mountain bike scene. With around 80 kilometres of trails, there is something for everyone, whether you prefer easy or challenging routes. The Kreuzboden/Hohsaas area in particular provides well-developed trails from the Bike Skills Park training course to the challenging Hohsaas Trail descent, while the other areas of the Saas Valley have numerous singletrail options. The various trails reveal ever-changing views of the impressive four-thousand-metre peaks of the Saas Valley. Many trails pass by or end in glacial lakes - a welcome opportunity to cool off.

Clear maps with all routes are available in our tourist offices. In the Saas Valley, you can also hire mountain bikes and e-bikes or take part in guided bike tours.

Biking on Kreuzboden/Hohsaas

The Kreuzboden-Hohsaas area is virtually predestined for scenically impressive, varied tours due to its topography with high alpine character. The view of 18 four-thousand-metre peaks alone and the 1600 metres in altitude that have to be overcome between Hohsaas and Saas-Grund are unique.

Bike Skills Park Kreuzboden

The Kreuzboden Bike Skills Park above Saas-Grund has been delighting numerous visitors since 2021 and has established itself as a popular highlight for bike fans. On three varied short trails, each around 380 metres long, young and old get their money's worth. A conveyor belt takes bikers back to the starting point in comfort.

The biking continues with the flow trail between Kreuzboden and Trift and on to Saas-Grund. This creates a biking route from Hohsaas at 3,200 metres above sea level to Saas-Grund, covering an altitude difference of over 1,600 metres.
