The Trail Center Aesch is a great place to improve your two-wheeled technique. Various trails with different levels of difficulty and obstacles will challenge you. You can also practice jumps. The Trail Center has a toilet block and a food truck in the summer. The day pass costs five francs, but is voluntary, so you can also practice for free.

It should also be mentioned that the day pass, which costs CHF 5, can be purchased voluntarily. So you can safely drive around for free. Next to the trail center there is a toilet block and in the parking lot there is also a food truck that sells food and drinks.
