This year's BIKE Festival Saalfelden Leogang (16-18 September) is all about action, which is guaranteed even without the packed event programme. The MTB arena around the Bikepark Leogangat the foot of which the exhibitor area is located, is considered the largest of its kind in Europe. The choice of trails is almost endless. There are no fewer than 30 finely modelled trails to choose from, including the almost eight-kilometre-long Steinberg Line orgy of bends. There are trails for children and beginners as well as for adrenaline-hungry downhillers. And there is also plenty of action on the festival site: none other than Fabio Wibmer himself will be on site at the BIKE Festival in Leogang 2022 at the weekend. As part of his spectacular bike flip show, the 27-year-old Austrian and his partner Andrea Maranelli will be demonstrating their outstanding skills. Fabio Wibmer had already amazed spectators of all ages with his bike flip show at the BIKE Festival on Lake Garda in spring. In addition to the tricks and jumps, the highlight for many of the young visitors were the autographs and photos with Wibmer afterwards.
