MTB Courses

Learn how to have fun in total safety!

Why is mountain biking good for children?

Fresh air, movement and of course lots of fun– do you need more reasons to start mountain biking with your children? I’d say that’s more than enough, wouldn’t you? But if you are still stumped, maybe this will convince you: mountain biking encourages children to be sporty, trains them in endurance, promotes coordination and balance, improves their ability to concentrate, and, over time, gives them more self-confidence . Be careful, though: the most important thing to consider is still fun: something that should never be overlooked when mountain biking with children!

Satisfaction and fun for children obviously mean something different than for adults. Forget about the meters gained in elevation gain (maybe they’ll get there with time!) and aim instead for a good family ride, darting over mud puddles, jumping over bumps, and going through narrow trails deep in the woods.

One last thing: You don’t have to think about the perfect bike ride in the Alps or the exciting ride in the bike park: puddles, bumps, and dirt roads can be found just about anywhere, even just outside your home!

when to start?

Qundo to start? Actually as soon as possible! Biking is the perfect preparation for mountain biking because the child learns good balance. Ideally, it is best to start with a balance bike (bike without pedals) on country trails and gravel roads: the child learns to be in tune with different surfaces and understands how to keep balance on two wheels. The transition from a pedal-free bike to a regular bike or mountain bike will then happen automatically with time.

For whom?

Everyone can have fun in maximum safety

Feltre Bike Tour with its ACSI GUIDES and TEACHERS of the NATIONAL ACADEMY OF MONUTAIN BIKE invite you to the introductory mountain bike courses for:

The goal of Feltre bike tour is to bring everyone closer to the practice of MTB in respect of the environment and in the healthiest spirit of sporting fun.
