Tour description

The downhill track on the Planai is legendary. Full speed and jumps alternately with tricky root passages. The start is at 1,830m and can be reached with the Planai cable car. Then it's going down in a natural environment. Steep sections with roots and stones lead past the reservoir to the middle station at 1325m where a washing area and the most necessary tools are available.
