Corno di Tres-Tresner Horn 1.812 m

Trail adventure above Tramin with breathtaking panorama

Tour description:

The Corno di Tres singletrack is a true highlight for experienced mountain bikers. The tour starts directly in Tramin, leads to Graun, and then climbs via switchbacks to the Grauner Joch pass. Even along the way, spectacular views of the South Tyrolean lowlands and the Dolomites unfold.

The route continues along the ridge towards Malga Rodezza, which in summer invites you to stop for a short break with espresso and Italian specialties. The Corno di Tres, or Tresner Horn (1,812 m), is a particular highlight; it is the southernmost peak of the Mendel ridge in the municipality of Kurtatsch. After a very steep ascent, it impresses with a 360° panorama of vineyards in the lowlands, apple orchards in the Val di Non to the west, the Dolomites to the east, and the Brenta Dolomites to the south.

From the Corno di Tres, the real singletrack fun begins: narrow paths, sometimes along rugged rock faces, lead predominantly downhill. Small uphill sections provide variety, passing forests, vineyards and lonely trails, until back to Tramin where the tour ends with a well-deserved aperitif.

Recommended equipment:

A technically well-equipped mountain bike or e-MTB is recommended for this very demanding tour. Helmet, gloves, protective gear, weatherproof clothing, and plenty of water are mandatory. A small snack should also be carried, as the singletrack trails require advanced riding skills and good physical condition.
