Project description:

Allegra has been supporting the Bike Republic Sölden since the beginning. Our first tasks in 2015 included the master planning of the area and the detailed planning of trails, which were carried out by our trail specialists Lukas Häusler, Patrick Koller and Chris Bernhardt. From 2016 onwards we were also active in project management of various construction projects and in construction supervision. This work was only ever possible thanks to the great support of our local partners. Today we continue to pass on our knowledge, from which many young trail builders have benefited over the years. In 2016 we wrote the trail construction standards for Sölden, which ushered in a new era in Austrian trail construction.

From 2017, we began to support the Bike Republic in its strategic direction. We wrote a business model and carried out market and ROI calculations. In addition, we supported the master plan and detailed planning of trails as well as the development of various construction projects. Our focus was also on the development of service offerings and the branding of the Bike Republic. Our ongoing involvement in this project reflects our commitment to promoting mountain bike tourism and the sustainable development of the region.
