What’s needed for a good party? Good music, a cool location, plenty of drinks and of course the right guests. We had all of this at our first Trailparty in Latsch at over 1,800m. Of course, we celebrated right in the middle of one of the most popular trails of the Vinschgau! Don’t believe us? Check this out!

Traumhafte Aussicht und grandioses Wetter - es gibt keinen besseren Ort für eine Trailparty!
Fantastic view and terrific weather – there’s no better place for a trail Party!

We celebrate Parties because of different reasons: Some because we pass an exam, the other because of a birthday and most often we celebrate without a real reason (apart from the love of beer). On our first trail party we wanted to celebrate for our love of the sport and where can you do this better than out in our natural habitat…the trail? For this reason, we have dragged up not only a complete DJ set and tones of beers, but also sun loungers on the trail between the Tarscher- and Latscher Alm.

Doch auch die beste Party ist irgendwann zu Ende und so leerten sich gegen 18.00 die Liegestühle wieder.
But even the best party has to eventually end, and so the deck chairs were emptied around 18.00.

Each party is only as good as their guests, and ours were just fantastic on that afternoon! We would like to thank you all again for the great atmosphere and hope to welcome you to one of our next ENDURO TrailPartys. Where they will be is still a secret at the moment, but you will find all important information in due course – just check #trailparty on social media!
