Project description:

In 2023, the ALLEGRA Team Austria with a concept and constellation that has never been seen before, we are supporting MTB Linz, not only planning and building the Roadlberg trails: We were able to support the club with the «Trail Building School» Together with and for the association, we deepen the basics and technical know-how on sustainable path construction, drainage techniques and individual trail construction challenges within the local community for future home trail and mountain bike projects in the Linz region.

From the beginning, it was important to the association to involve the local scene as best as possible in the trails on the Roadlberg, about 20 minutes by car from Linz between Ottenschlag and Alberndorf, and to build a MTB path/trail network that is free and freely accessible to the general public. Of course, we also wanted to explore the possibilities and develop attractive management concepts together with landowners, hunters, foresters and the municipalities.

Representatives from two neighboring clubs were also there, who will later take care of the ongoing maintenance alongside MTB Linz. With our combined strength, we were able to put together a great project for the local scene.

A small excerpt from the construction diary day 1 of the Trailbuilding School 2023 with ALLEGRA and MTB Linz: After the final inspections and course corrections, we were able to start together with a short uphill segment.
