    Leisurely mountain bike tour on the old road along the Alvierbach stream from Bürs to Brand.

    This leisurely tour starts in the centre of Bürs and leads along the old road connection to Brand. From the main road in Bürs, branch off into Werkstraße and after a short while into Schaßweg. As soon as you have reached the Schaßweg, it leads you from Bürs up to the Schaß, further to the Klostermaisäß until you reach the golf course in Brand. At the golf course, the path now branches off over a bridge in the direction of the district of Galaferda and runs along the main road into the centre of Brand. Return for the tour via the same path.

    The Schaß above the village Bürs is perfect for a rest.
