HOT SHOTS RIDE

Hot Shots: Ride with Lukas Knopf

Follow the pro! Lukas Knopf will take you on the Hot Shots route.

Join the professional mountain biker on one of the most spectacular routes at the Epic Bikepark Leogang. Ten advanced riders will have the exclusive opportunity to follow Lukas, experience his lines, and receive valuable advice from the pro himself.

Spanning over 3.3 kilometres, the route features tables, rollers, wall rides and ample opportunity for airtime. Starting from the Asitz mountain station, the challenging Pro Jump Line descends 352 metres through the forest to the Flowlink.

This ride is aimed at experienced bikers who are confident on jumps and want to take their skills, flow and style to the next level alongside Lukas.
