Higher, faster, further: true to the motto
 ‘Expand your limits’, our photo story shows
 the new possibilities with an e-bike
 for an ultimate hut tour in Davos Klosters.

When you’re used to doing things a certain way, it’s
hard to switch, even if there’s an easier alternative.
That’s how I felt about e-bikes, but I was pleasantly
surprised. For a long time, e‑bikes were seen as not
sporty, too heavy, or just for old folks. But this view­
point is outdated, and the reputation of e‑bikes has
done an about face. Even Danny MacAskill’s latest
video has him riding an e-bike. Suddenly, there’s a
whole new world of opportunity: Thanks to “uphill
flow”, steep climbs are a piece of cake, and a day
trip becomes a quick evening spin. Even long rides
to get to the flowingest single-track trails are over in
no time.

Totally dope
These words are as fitting for a Davos Klosters e-bike
mountain hut tour as a fine-tuned SRAM XX1 trigger
shifter on your dream bike. Because once we were a
few kilometers into our ride down the Flüelatal and
up to Tschuggen, things got pretty dope. Totally
dope. A longer climb along a narrow, serpentine track
leads from the Flüela Pass up to the Pischa mountain
station. Just thinking about how this climb feels on a
normal bike makes me break out in a sweat. But this
time, things were different: My legs kept pumping at
a surprisingly regular cadence, and my pulse didn’t
hit the roof, despite the thinning air at 2,400 meters
above sea level. A look at the time and we were even
more surprised: We made it to the top in almost half
the time. This was definitely a plus, because we
still had quite a route ahead of us. To be precise,
over the next three days, we would be covering
130 kilometers of trails, with an elevation gain of
5,500 meters. That’s why we didn’t want to waste
any time, despite the amazing panorama. All we
had time for is a quick sip from our water bottles.
And onwards and upwards.

offering a panoramic view of the
 city of Davos and the distinctive
 mountain slopes; this trail took us
 past mountain meadows filled with
 sweet-smelling flowers and some
 charming alpine huts weathered by
 the elements. Heidi of the classic
 book by the same name would have
 felt at home here. One thing, ho-
 wever, remained the same: the trail
 continued as an easy flow, without
 too many obstacles. At least until
 we got back into the forest. This is
 where things started to get a bit
 more technical: it was a bit chunde-
 ry, with a few roots on the trail until
 we reached Klosters. But the ride
 continued to be pure pleasure.

more of a rough downhill ride all the way to Davos. Our
maxim: close your eyes and send it. We took a quick
breather at Lake Davos. Still stoked on our adrenaline
rush, we wasted no energy tackling the remaining 16
kilometers through the Dischmatal valley up to Alp
Dürrboden thanks to the e-motor.

Bonked despite the e-bike
The sun had still not peeked over the slopes of Piz
Grialetsch when we headed out on the final leg of our
e-bike mountain hut tour. The early-morning air was
so cold, our legs and arms were immediately covered
in goosebumps. But before too long, things started
getting pretty gnarly. Despite the e-bikes, we were
totally bonked on the last stretch up to the Scaletta
Pass. After two, three painful attempts, we gave up
- and pushed. I dare you to say that e‑biking is not a
workout. Either way, the sweat was worth it: As a re-
ward, once we reached the other side, a five-kilometer
single-track trail took us through the alpine moonsca-
pe to the Alp Funtauna. We couldn’t help but break
into a grin on this flowing trail. The earlier exertion?
Forgotten! At least for a bit.

Instagram-worthy shots
The trail winds through treeless Val Funtauna. Wide
open spaces! Around us, mountain peaks with a fresh
dusting of snow – a hint of Tibet, right in the heart of
the canton of Grisons. Suddenly, civilization seemed
so far away But the single-track trail snakes steeply up
the mountain and is quite a grunt. We used every last
bit of energy we had, even with the motor. However, at
the top we were met with an amazing view: the deep
green alpine lakes Lai da Ravais-ch Sur and Suot.
Instagram filters? No need! We put our bikes down in
the meadow and simply savored the fact that we were
there. We enjoyed a few long, deep breaths. Our e-bike
adventure would soon be drawing to a close. Fittingly,
the trail from this point forward is just downhill, all the
way to Bergün. And then suddenly it turns to asphalt,
all the way to the train station in Filisur. But even if
all good things must come to an end, this trip ended
on a high note: A heritage train, the Rhätischen Bahn
(RhB), took us back to Davos, but went right past the
fabulous Zügen Gorge. The train ride brought back all
the impressions of the last three days and it was like
watching a gripping slideshow - three days under
power. An e-bike adventure that we won’t soon forget.

 DAVOS BIKE
 PARK
 FREESTYLERS’ MEETING POINT

 The new bike park has facilities for bikers of all ages. Whi-
 le more advanced riders might dare to take on the jumps,
 beginners can practise their skills in the skills park or on
 the pump track. The park is designed so that bikers can
 improve their skills over time and move on to the next
 obstacle in terms of difficulty. The skills course is perfect
 for assessing and improving your technical ability.

 Bikers can learn the sport’s basic moves on the pump
 track and acquire good coordination and fitness training.
 The composite surface of the modular pump track even
 lets them practise their skills in bad weather.

 The humus table line for beginners provides the best
 preparation for the larger jumps on the dirt jump line.
 The dirt jump line provides the best training opportuni-
 ties for more advanced riders, offering plenty of space
 for creativity. From summer 2018, the Davos Bike Park
 will also be offering a “Rezi landing”. This landing, which
 is unique in Switzerland lets bikers practise their jumps
 and expand their skills.

GOTSCHNA V I D EO

 FREERIDE
THE FLOWING TRAIL FOR OLD AND YOUNG ALIKE

The Gotschna freeride piste has something to offer
everyone, whether you are young or old, novice or ad-
vanced rider. The fun flowing trail with lots of wooden
elements and steep walled curves is winning riders
over with its pure biking fun and the moderately steep
terrain from the Gotschnaboden down to the valley
station of the Gotschna funicular railway.

Many tables, flattened dirt mounds with steep ap-
proaches, have been shored up. The combinations of
high jumps, hard waves and vertical curves are only
suitable for experienced riders. You‘re the boss on the
slope! Attack the obstacles with high flights and loads
of style or slowly try out your first jumps.

‘Respectful interaction
 is most important to me.’
 We talked to Joos Keller,
 group leader of the Trail
 Crew Davos. He reveals
 his favourite tour and
 what bikers can look
 forward to this summer
 in Davos Klosters.

Where are you on the road
most often?
We are tireless on the signposted
routes. There are sections that
require a little more attention from
us. These include, for example, the
trail from Jakobshorn to Sertig or
the Meierhof trail. Especially when
there is scree, we regularly reach
for the shovel. There’s no getting
around it (laughs).
