Trip notes

Is it right for your kids?

Just a short hop from Innsbruck, Muttereralm is one of the gentler Tyrolean bikeparks for families: a gondola does the climbing, a Kids & Beginners area with three easy lines sits at the mountain station, and the easiest descents range from a no-feature forest road (The Simple One, ~5 km) to a playful 2.4 km flow line (The First One). There's a restaurant at the station plus other family attractions nearby (mountain carts, an adventure playground, water-play features), so non-riding kids aren't stuck waiting. The catch: no minimum age is published, helmets and protection are mandatory, and while kids' bikes and gear are rentable, specific children's sizes aren't detailed online — so confirm rental fit and protection before you commit to a day.

Trails to know

The First One

· 2.4 km

Family-oriented line with bypassable jumps and berms/roots — described by sources as suited to younger riders and families.

The Simple One

· approx. 5 km

Easy forest/forestry-road descent from the mountain station to the valley with no features; good for the most cautious first-timers.

The Chainless One

· approx. 3.5–7 km (sources disagree)

Rollable flow trail with wide curves and small jumps; sources describe it as a relaxed, family-friendly descent.

Kids & Beginners Park

Operator-confirmed area at the mountain station with three lines featuring simple curves, steps and small jumps for first attempts.

Good to know for parents

•The Kids & Beginners area sits at the Muttereralm mountain station and has three lines with simple curves, steps and small jumps for first attempts (operator-confirmed). A conveyor belt for lapping it is mentioned by only one unofficial trail database and is not confirmed by the operator — verify on arrival.

•Uplift is by the Muttereralmbahn gondola, which carries bikes; you can also use the gravel forest road (shared with hikers) to ride or walk up/down, which gives an easy bail-out option.

•Several on-site bike schools and guides (e.g. Bikeschool Innsbruck) run beginner and kids' technique courses — book ahead rather than turning up, as availability varies.

•Helmet and protective gear are mandatory in the bikepark. Kids' bikes, helmets and protective clothing are available to rent on site (via Die Börse at the valley station / partner shops), but specific children's sizes and full-face/pad hire aren't detailed online — call ahead to reserve children's gear.

•The easiest line, The Simple One, is essentially a smooth forest/forestry road with no features (about 5 km), so very nervous first-timers can still get a top-to-bottom descent.
