What the bike can do!

The bicycle is a miracle weapon of versatility – it accompanies us not only in our everyday lives and no longer serves as a mere means of transportation. No, it is a part of our lives, it moves us forward – and in more ways than one.

After a long day at work, our bike brings us back to the “here and now” and lets us switch off – at the same time it takes us home or to friends, to a bar or to our favorite café.

On a mountain bike or gravel bike, sharp turns, drops, and roots become exciting opponents and challenges that help us grow and become new goals. But with practice, patience, and the right technique, we can accept and master these challenges. We learn to control our emotions – on the trail, in everyday life, at work.

The bike is a tool for staying fit, exercising, moving, and experiencing nature. Or simply a great excuse to spend the day with old and new friends. One thing is certain: there will be plenty of stories to tell about the experiences afterwards – naturally, over a rewarding piece of cake or scoop of ice cream.

From an early age, we've been riding our bikes – on the way to school or to the sports club. Together with classmates or a group of friends. Riding together is much easier anyway – on the way to school, but also through life.

Let's give the bicycle more space in our lives, since it already gives us so much every day – freedom, fosters friendships, promotes health, and spreads joy. So: let's give two wheels more space and invest in a better future with more pedal power.

The history of coexistence

How did we get to the point where mountain bikers, hikers, and cows share the same trail? The history of coexistence in the Swiss Alps is older—and more exciting—than many people think. Graubünden is playing a pioneering role with Fairtrail, demonstrating how shared travel works: with respect, dialogue, and a pioneering spirit.

The flow trails at Moléson Bike Park offer playful riding fun for every level – Modzon with plenty of jumps, Poya a bit more technical and twisty. Perfect for repeated descents and varied lines.

Coexistence – peaceful coexistence on our paths

How can we achieve peaceful coexistence among all stakeholders and user groups on non-motorized transport routes? We didn't invent coexistence, but we're demonstrating our path here to best ensure the interests of all stakeholders. For truly lived coexistence.
