MOUNTAIN BIKES RULE

Val di Sole Bikeland... even in the winter

A passion knows no seasons and this is why, if you love your bike, you should not have to stop pedalling, even if there is snow and ice under your wheels instead of grass and asphalt. Fat bikes are the answer: with their really fat tyres (hence their name), they are easy to ride on soft terrain like snow.  This means you can explore a winter wonderland of routes and trails surrounded by the silence and stillness of nature in the snow.  
Another opportunity is provided by bikes with studded tires, which will allow you to pedal smoothly not only on snow but also on icy terrain. Of course, the bike's performance will be better along routes where the snow is packed.

Not fit enough? No worry, pedal-assisted E-fat bikes, equipped with suitable tires, mean you enjoy the ride without too much effort on your part. 

Can you already hear the snow crunching under your wheels?
