Why train at AREA 47?
AREA 47 is the ideal way into the bikepark: a short lift, wide lines, a big skill area and a pump track always ready for a warm-up. Family-friendly and perfect for taster courses.
Skill Area
A practice area with drops, northshore elements, wall rides and a pump track. This is where you learn the ABCs for the big bikepark.
Bikepark Lines
Blue beginner lines, red flow and drop sections — all short and ridable within reason. Ideal for “practising until it sticks”.
Kids & Family
Kids’ bike camp and family coaching with adapted lines. A safe setting and plenty of success every day.
