Bielerhöhe

Next weekend the Climb The Mountain (CTM) Splitboard Festival will take place on the Bielerhöhe in the Silvretta. We are giving away 2x2 tickets for participation on Saturday, 28.1.23. Who would like to come along?

Splitboard equipment is an expensive affair. To be sure that the equipment is satisfactory and fun both on the ascent and the descent, a test festival offers the ideal conditions. As you are spoiled for choice at a test festival, here are a few valuable tips from mr.splitboards Simon Graf on how to find the best equipment for you personally.

There are still places available at seven different camps for splitboarders, including the "mr.splitboards Pyrenees adventure" in March and the big "Climb the Mountain" test festival at the end of January, where you can rent directly from the manufacturers. Participants include Arbor, Amplid, Jones, Furberg, Rossignol, mr.splitboards, Never Summer, Rome, Gara and Weston.

The Back on Track Feel Freeride Contest is entering the next round and registration will open on Monday, February 11 at 8 pm. For all those who want to take part, it's time to be quick!

From 23 - 25.03.2018, the snow-covered playground of the Silvretta-Bielerhöhe was once again the setting for a fantastic freeride spectacle. For the 6th time, 35 snow-hungry skiers, snowboarders and telemark skiers gathered at the Saarbrücker Hütte to celebrate the Back on Track Feel Free Ride Contest 2018. OMG stands for "Oh My God" and describes the BOT 2018 pretty well, but still doesn't quite do the experience justice!

For the fifth time in a row, the Back On Track Freeride Contest 2017 will feature freeride action, hut fun, breathtaking scenery and friendly people in and around the Saarbrücker Hütte. This somewhat different freeride contest is built on the three cornerstones of "sustainability, nature compatibility and community spirit". The focus is therefore not on the sickest line, but on having fun together on the mountain - whether in the hut or on a ski tour on the surrounding slopes.

The proven splitboard testival Climb the Mountain goes into the next round. From 27-29 January 2017, test equipment for splitboarders will be available at the Berggasthof Piz Buin at the Silvretta reservoir on the Bielerhöhe. There will also be a lecture program, a film screening with Aline Bock and guided tours in the Silvretta on request.

The fourth edition of the soul freeride event Back on Track took place from March 18 to 20. The hike-to-ride format once again attracted 35 motivated freeriders with splitboards, skis and snowshoes to the Silvretta on the Bielerhöhe. The hostel for the three days was once again the Saarbrücker Hütte. Compared to previous years, there was no need to worry about the weather. The forecast was for plenty of sunshine and there really wasn't a cloud in the sky for three days. Matze Kurzthaler was there for PowderGuide.

For the 11th time, the Splitboards Europe team invited participants to Climb the Mountain in the Montafon. At an altitude of 2000m, the 60 participants were able to experience everything to do with splitboards for a weekend.

Hike to Ride Contest on the Bielerhöhe - sustainability, nature compatibility, community spirit.

After the successful premiere of the "Back On Track - Feel Free Ride Contest" at the end of the 2013 winter season, another edition of the top-class contest format will take place this year. True to the motto "Back on Track" - back to the roots of freeriding - powder-hungry freeriders from Voralberg and the surrounding area will meet up to ride together from April 4 - 6, 2014.
