To give children even more confidence on their bikes and at the same time introduce them to the joys of this sport, the Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten am Schluchsee offers bike camps during the school holidays in cooperation with "Feldberg Sports." Adults can take part in guided e-mountain bike tours.
The mountain bike workshops for kids and teens take place between April and October and are designed to give participating children more confidence when riding, teach them new techniques, and above all, be fun.
Together with our partner Feldberg Sports, the Vier Jahreszeiten am Schluchsee offers guests on family vacations in the Black Forest mountain bike training courses in the immediate vicinity of the hotel.
Experienced bike trainers accompany the children and help them improve their riding technique step by step. The focus is on important basics such as balance, safe cornering, controlled braking, and mastering small obstacles. The training content is individually adapted to the respective riding level, so that both beginners and slightly advanced riders receive optimal support.
