Project description:

Since summer 2020, there have been seven different trails in Thusis with different modules and elements. This skill center is located on an extensive forest area next to the swimming pool in Thusis. The seven trails offer a variety of challenges and surprise with varied and creative obstacles in the middle of a beautifully natural forest area.

Thusis is a showcase project in terms of all park components. A spacious entrance area with barbecue area, bike racks, parking spaces, information boards and signage forms a comfortable infrastructure. The 3.5 km long trails offer creative and varied riding fun with different levels of difficulty and modules. There are QR codes on each of the seven trails that provide further information about the obstacles and the best approach. The surroundings, embedded in the forest, blend harmoniously into the overall picture of Thusis.
