When you talk about downhill riding in Europe, big resorts like Morzine, Leogang, and other big names always come up. However, there are still some hidden gems sheltered in the mountains of Europe. The “Kohlern Bahn” in Bolzano, Italy is, for example, one of these tracks. It´s a love/hate relationship for every rider who manages to get down this track. The Kohler downhill is long, fast, exhausting and most of all rough. At the same time, this terrain is perfect for getting comfortable for the World Cup tracks around the globe. For this reason, the CUBE Global Squad spent a couple days in Italy to put the bikes and riders to the test.

  Fast, rough, and loose, what more can you ask for?

 This being more or less my hometrack, I can now truly say that I am a sh!tty rider...
Take note that this track still is not "DH only". sometimes there are lots of hikers there.

 @Milko3D: Yeah, and it only gets rougher every year, especially the nasty rocky middle part. Definitely a love/hate track.

That trail that goes down along the ledge with a 90 degree drop on the side...that thing surprised me a little, thankfully I had my brown pants on Big Grin

 This is one hell of a track - its hard to not get caught up in some of the most beautiful views as they're on rock garden sections with no guard rails or fences to stop you plunging to your death...

10/10 would ride again, riders should bring clean underwear
