Our film » ALLEGRA – Building Trails and connecting worlds in Japan» will go online on April 30th!
Join ALLEGRA on an inspiring journey – from its origins in Switzerland to the building of a new mountain biking culture in Japan.
ALLEGRA specializes in mountain bike tourism, harnessing the power of trails to attract visitors and breathe new life into regions worldwide.
This film takes you on a journey from ALLEGRA's origins in Switzerland to its founding in Japan. It reveals the vision, passion, and teamwork behind every single trail.
From planning and design to construction and marketing: creating a trail is a process characterized by vision, collaboration, and respect for nature. Machines shape the terrain, every detail is carefully crafted so that the trail blends harmoniously into the landscape. Every member of the A-Team contributes their part, and ultimately, it's about sharing this story with the world.
Marc, project manager in Japan, describes the vision as follows:
„Creating trails in places where none existed before means creating something completely new. Through thoughtful design and the unique landscapes of Japan, ALLEGRA aims to develop a trail network that is accessible to everyone and take mountain biking to a new level, making Japan one of the world’s leading bike destinations.“
But ALLEGRA's mission goes far beyond trails. It's about building communities and creating new ways to experience nature.
Just as a trail connects mountains and valleys, it also connects people, from local riders to visitors from all over the world. Trail builders taro emphasizes the importance of teamwork: By combining machine and manual labor, the team can implement larger projects while growing and learning together. Their goal is to create trails that are fun, safe, and welcoming to everyone – places where everyone can experience the joy of mountain biking.
For Daisaku This work means more than just building trails. It's about revitalizing regions through mountain bike tourism – attracting visitors while simultaneously creating places where local children can ride, play, and grow up with nature.
Because with just one bicycle, people of all generations can come together – experience the freedom of nature and discover the endless possibilities of mountain biking.
With these trails, ALLEGRA aims to inspire more riders, more communities, and more connections.
Because every trail doesn't just lead anywhere.
He connects us all.
