Well-marked trails through the most beautiful sites of the West Harz region start right at the hotel. The terrain around Bad Grund is for every level of proficiency. Beginners can try out moderate circuits, and experts can work out on rugged mountain routes.

 

Should your muscles get sore, our physiotherapist will treat you to a relaxing sports massage, and you can unwind in our large wellness area—with an indoor swimming pool and saunas. 

The mountain-bike training also includes nutritional counseling which will reveal how raw food can make you perform even better.

 

 

Mountain Biking in the Harz Mountains.

 

The terrain around Bad Grund is unbeatable mountain-biking territory. Whether you are a beginner or an expert biker, there is something for every level of proficiency. Biking in a group is most fun, of course, with other bikers with roughly the same skills.

 

Our special program is for all mountain biking enthusiasts, as well as for those who would just like to try it out. Our tours and training are set to the participants’ abilities.

 

The Harz Mountains offer many options for different skill levels, from easy trails for those with little training to challenging routes for experts. You will be amazed at the beautiful Harz scenery on all your outings. 

Improving your technique is always a part of mountain biking, and even experienced bikers can learn more from our professionals. More confidence in handling the bike will make the trails more fun.

 

If your legs are sore after the challenging riding, our physiotherapist will treat you to an enjoyable sports massage, and you can recuperate in our large wellness area—in the indoor swimming pool and the saunas.

Our instructors: 

The Fröhlich family are not only excellent mountain bike teachers. Fröhlich means “merry” in German, and they live up to their name in every way! We will have lots of fun with them.

Mr. Fröhlich senior will teach the basics course, give our beginners the most important techniques and hints, and then lead them on rides appropriate for their level of skill. 

Benno coaches experienced bikers and coaches them on different types of trails, often quite difficult ones. He has become one of the big names in mountain biking and can show you a thing or two about two-wheelers in mountain terrain.

Doris and Hannes are further members of the team, and both are trained trail scouts. They have been guides for mountain bikers of all skill levels through our uniquely beautiful landscape for many years. 

Our physiotherapist is Carsten, with his miracle hands. Not only sport clubs like his know-how; now 5-star hotels have also heard of him and often take him away from our beautiful site for pricey massages. However, during our weekend of mountain biking, he will be completely at our disposal.
