Max-Trax bike course

Learn to ride a bike safely and enjoyably

Staying safe on the road with Max

Max is a little badger who teaches children the correct behavior in traffic in a fun and understandable way.

The Max Trax course is set up on Bern's local mountain, as it is every year. Die-hard little cycling fans and beginners alike can master the exciting bike course with flying colors. The bike exercises are offered for free and suitable for children of all ages. The course, located on the meadow opposite the toboggan run, is supervised and open daily from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in good weather.

Rental equipment: helmets and bikes

Bikes and bike helmets can be rented on site, but are only available in limited quantities. It is therefore advantageous to ride the course with your own equipment. We and Max the badger look forward to your visit.

School classes are also very welcome. Book an exclusive appointment with Max directly with Agnes Scheidegger.

The course will be closed in case of rain or strong winds.
