The forecast looks great, the routes are stunning, the meals are planned -- we are ready!



Getting to The Hive 

The “hive” location for the Hive Ride is

Chlosterbüel 28, 6170 Schüpfheim


Here you will check-in in the morning, leave any bags you might have, grab a coffee by Vertical Coffee Roasters, fill up your bidon with PeakPunk, do the workshops, eat lunch, and of course pick up your things again at the end of the day. Washrooms are on-site. We have access to both indoor and outdoor eating depending on the weather. 


Arrival by train: 

From Luzern – direct train to Schüpfheim, no disruptions

From Bern – Train and Bus, the trainline is under construction

Despite our efforts it was not possible to make a reservation for the bus between Langnau and Schüpfheim for those who arrive from Bern! If you can, please put your bike in a tranzbag. If you have some concerns please write Sara who will also be traveling from Bern and can support coordination efforts +41 76 442 83 16


Arrival by car: 

There is plenty of free parking at the Hive


Arrival by bike: Also very do-able with well marked bike paths and good legs, let us know if you would like some support finding the route!

Note: If you have a strict timeline in the evening please let your coach know. Some of the coaches might add an extra climb if the participants are feeling up for it and that could slightly delay the timeline. 


The Routes

Your coaches will be leading you through the routes so you don’t need to worry about getting lost, however feel free to download the gpx files via the Komoot link! Please download routes according to what you selected in registration (shorter, longer, gravel)


BLUE routes are the slightly shorter rides 

RED routes are the slightly longer rides 

GRAVEL routes are the gravel rides ;) 


The Workshops

Everyone will do a short 40 minute workshop after lunch (either Komoot, Bike Fitting, Bike Skills, Mechanic demonstration). Then, those who signed up for the extended workshops will be divided into groups and join the sessions you haven't done after lunch (2 x circa 1 hr). Note: Komoot workshop is only available after lunch


To get the most out of your skills session with Lil, fill out her extended questionnaire here.
