 Do the summer lifts take mountain bikes please? 

Hi - We are thinking of coming to St Johann but want to be sure that we can take bikes up the slopes on the chair lifts and gondolas. Does anyone know if this is possible please? Many thanks.

for Vienna, Danube Valley, Austrian Alps

Many cable cars take bikes - but I would check the individual bergbahnen to be certain .

Chair lifts- much different due to safety - how do you easily put safety bar down with the bike

You might be better off in Ellmau a few miles away where you take your bikes up on the cog railway.

In St johann the cable car will not let you take your bike. Kitz though you are able to do this. Hope this helps

Thanks to you all for replying.

Hi Vertical – the bikes are put on the back of the chair lifts by attendants, and the attendant at the top takes the bike off the back of the chair as you jump off in the usual way.

Hi WirralScouse- thank you for tip re Ellmau.

Hi 3rd tip – Thanks, I am aware of Kitzb, and apparently Mayrhofen has a lift too.

It is strange how hard it has been to find out about this. We used to go on holiday with Crystal Active and really miss them. We still have not found a holiday yet.
