Bahnentour Davos Klosters

Adventure at 10,000m elevation gain

Das 10'000-Höhenmeter-Abenteuer

Up nine times with the cable cars – and shred down almost 10,000 meters of altitude on various single trails. The cable car tour is considered the ultimate enduro kick in the Alps. Anthony Pearce is a mountain biker from the very beginning and tells us what makes the cable car tour so special for him.

'I started biking in the 90s. Back then, everything was much rougher than it is today: no suspension forks, no disc brakes. We pumped the tires to three bars, held on to the handlebars and went crazy...' This is how Anthony Pearce describes the beginnings of his passion. And he goes on to explain what makes the cable car tour so special for him: 'In addition to the 10,000 meters of descent, you ride around 120 kilometers. And never the same trail twice - even if we take the same cable car as a shuttle up. That's pretty cool!' And that's not all: 'Always keep an eye on the weather. There might be snow at the first summit. The sun might shine at the next - and further down it might be foggy. The cable car tour never gets boring.'

'My wildest moment? Pizza in the parsenn cable railway'

So that hikers, trail runners and bikers don't get in each other's way, there is a special principle in Davos Klosters: trail tolerance. "This means that we share the same paths. And respect each other", explains Anthony. When asked what is the wildest moment for him and his guests during the Bahnen tour, the answer comes out quickly: "Lunch in the Parsenn cable railway. The pizzeria delivers your pizzas directly to the valley station. Quickly pay, grab the pizza boxes under your arm and head off back up the mountain. Then straight onto the next trail.”

Après-biking at Lake Davos

And finally, Anthony tells us how he celebrates the end of each train tour: 'We often arrange a barbecue with friends on Lake Davos at the end of the Bahnentour. There’s a lovely little bay there with an attractive open fireplace. In short, relax and unwind, barbecue some food and toast a fantastic day of trail riding.'

Bahnentour: the original route

The Davos Klosters destination has a unique offer with five different mountain railways that transport bikes. If you combine the railways, you can have a bike tour with almost 10,000 metres of descent.

Sporty riders can complete the cable car tour in one day. However, the tour can also be completed in several stages, for example in two days. In short: the same riding fun but with significantly more opportunities to take breaks. Good to know: If you stay at an official bike hotel for one night, the day ticket for bike transport in the Davos Klosters Mountains is included (only applies if you book the bike package directly at the bike hotel). If you don't yet feel confident about the cable car tour, try the trail ticket route first as preparation.
