With over 900km of paths and trails, the Pfälzerwald Mountain Bike Park is an El Dorado for touring bikers - 20 different routes are waiting to be discovered.

Stephan has accumulated over 25 years of tourism experience in the Pfälzerwald Biosphere Reserve and will share how he successfully organizes the maintenance of the MTB trail network in the Pfälzerwald. He will tell us ...
  • What ensures good marketing of a trail network.
  • Why clear responsibilities are connected to product quality.
  • How communities can be involved in trail maintenance.
