Just above the lower station of the Pohorje Cable Car, the new Skills Park has come to life – a learning area designed for safe, gradual, and fun introduction to the basics of mountain biking. The park is designed with beginners of all ages in mind and offers a safe environment for acquiring essential mountain biking (MTB) knowledge and skills.
The Skills Park features thoughtfully designed elements tailored to different ability levels, including a pump track, technical zones, natural obstacles, low jumps, drops, and rollers, as well as a conveyor belt for easier access to the start of the course and more repetitions in a shorter time.
Before hitting more demanding trails, riders can learn:
- proper body position and braking techniques,
- how to control speed, maintain balance, and shift weight,
- how to safely ride through turns, over bumps and obstacles, and perform jumps.
Who is the Skills Park for?
The park is suitable for children, teenagers, adults, and families – regardless of prior biking experience. It’s an ideal choice for anyone looking to build confidence in their biking abilities.
