In the 1.6 km long, easy to ride BROATE LINE, the TEÄRE, the OHN LINE, and the Nene Trail merge. For those who want, it offers some playful elements.
[bʀɔɑ̃ tə] "Broat" – that's how the Ötztal locals say it – and the green BROATE LINE is also designed to be wider (in winter it is a sledding slope). On it, you arrive after the TEÄRE and OHN LINE as well as the Nene Trail, and it finally ends in the Pumptrack Rollin directly at the Gaislachkoglbahn. Even though it is easy to ride, you should watch out for the gravel, as it can be slippery. Those who want can enjoy the jump elements, wallrides, and small drops – all of which are bypassable. For those who want something more demanding, you can branch off several times from the BROATE LINE onto the Schteckler Trail. A beautiful line.
Author’s recommendation
Directly at the end, you can wash your bike and get refreshments at the Pumptrack ROLLIN. It is the meeting point of the BIKE REPUBLIANS.

Safety information
The BROATE LINE is a green line and therefore especially suitable for beginners. Please watch out for the gravel, which can be slippery.
At BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN, it's about having fun with bike sports together – regardless of your riding level. Be considerate and support each other. And behave just as respectfully towards all other people on the mountain and in the valley - and the nature.
–> Stay on the paved and signposted paths. Do not ride over open meadows!
–> Avoid blocking the rear wheel to help preserve the trails.
–> Be considerate of animals and close the pasture gates. Cows may always be on the trails and lines. Ride carefully and keep your distance!
