Scooter biking on Betelberg mountain

On a scooter bike, race past mountain huts and lush meadows as you enjoy the views of the gushing Iffig Falls.

Why not climb onto one of the state-of-the-art scooter bikes and experience fun and action as you descend from the mountain to the valley. The 9 kilometre-long fun-filled scooter ride, covering an elevation difference of a good 800 metres, takes place in an idyllic setting.
