The Bear Bike Treasure Hunt offers all age groups an exciting biking experience in Arosa. The three different routes with varying levels of difficulty each start and end at the Skill Center at the Hörnli valley station. The aim of the Bärenbike treasure hunt is to find the thalers on the boards placed along the route. Whoever has found all the thalers will receive the solution word and may pick up a goodie at the Bike School in the Skill Center Arosa.

After the start at the Skill Center, the route leads to the Pumptrack behind the Arosa Sports and Congress Center. The route continues with the Arosa-Weisshorn cable car to the Arosa Bear Sanctuary. From there, a path leads past the AlpArosa restaurant to the reservoir and on to the end of the Hörnli Trail. Then there are only a few meters left to the finish at the Skill Center at the valley station of the Hörnli Express.

Author’s recommendation

A visit to Arosa Bear Sanctuary is worthwhile for the whole family!
