View the calendarHosingen Trail (MTB)
Two beautiful mountain-bike routes start right next to the holiday park, with different lengths and levels of challenge. The 12.4 km Hosingen Trail follows unpaved woodland paths, with a long descent followed by a demanding climb of 321 metres over around 2.5 km. It suits riders with some experience who enjoy a balance of technique and effort.
For more speed and distance, try the 24.1 km Hosingen-Lellingen Trail. It winds around the Lellingen-Fréng / Op Baerel nature reserve, with 570 metres of elevation gain in total. The climb mainly follows paved roads, making it gradual and manageable – ideal for a solid training ride or an outing with friends.
Both trails are one-way routes and occasionally share the path with walkers, so stay alert at junctions. Set off from the park for an adventurous morning ride or combine your outing with a picnic in nature.
No mountain bike with you? No problem. You can hire mountain bikes and e-bikes at reception and set off with a fully charged battery and a smile. Remember our new bike maintenance area too, ideal for a quick clean or a small repair after your ride.
