01

Guiding

Guided tours: your ride, your rules
Forget standard routes and copy-and-paste trails. At ALPINE there are no cookie-cutter experiences, only tailor-made bike adventures. Everyone is different, so I plan every tour individually – precisely matched to your riding ability, your flow and exactly what you feel like doing that day.
Whether you are looking for a relaxed scenic ride, want to tackle the best trails in the South Tyrolean mountains, push your limits or simply find the perfect flow on your bike: you set the vibe and I provide the right terrain. And of course, a well-earned stop at a mountain hut is part of the experience :-)

Are you a larger group? I will gladly organise and plan your perfect day. Groups of 10 or more require a second guide.

Riding technique

Riding skills courses: NEXT LEVEL
Boring laps around cones in a car park? Not here. If you want to take your bike skills to the next level, we go straight to where they matter: the trails. At ALPINE there are no standardised lesson plans. Instead, the coaching starts exactly where you are now.
Whether you want to learn the basics, find more flow through tight switchbacks, land jumps safely or choose the right line through rocky terrain, the training is tailored to you.
You benefit directly from my experience as an E-Enduro World Cup rider. I share the exact techniques and insights that work on the world's most demanding tracks and adapt them to your riding style.

Bike maintenance and repair course

Stay safe on the trail: your bike maintenance and repair course

Sound familiar? You are in the middle of a brilliant tour when the chain suddenly drops, the gears start rattling or a flat tyre stops your flow. If you love your bike, you push it? No way!

In my repair course, you will learn how to keep your mountain bike or e-MTB in perfect shape and fix the most common trail-side problems yourself in just a few minutes. No technical jargon – just practical expertise from a professional.

Photo service

Want epic shots?
So you can keep 100% of your focus on the trail, a professional photographer can be added to your tour or training session on request. No quick phone snapshots or shaky clips from the edge of the trail, but genuine, high-resolution action shots from your perfect day!

I did a skills training session with Marc today. His calm and competent method helped me make a huge step forward. We finished with a fantastic trail, which I completed with a big grin on my face. Five thumbs up from me – until next time.
Brilliant coaching with Marc in Vinschgau/Latsch to improve my riding level. Excellent support and motivation; the learning effect was huge. After just one day, I was able to put the riding-technique tips into practice immediately on the beautiful trails …
I had the opportunity to take an introductory mountain-bike training session with Marc as part of an event. Marc is empathetic and calm, and taught me the basics of mountain biking with great patience and video analysis. Within just a few days, I felt confident enough to tackle trails up to S2 even though I had never ridden seriously before. A highlight was riding a trail with Marc while receiving helpful tips and advice throughout. I can recommend Marc without reservation.
Marc Theiner is a highly committed and motivating riding-skills coach. He is my absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to improve their skills. His mastery of the sport is exceptional, and you can learn a great deal simply by watching him. I am delighted!
The session with Marc was great fun. We rode uphill through switchbacks on e-bikes, which is already a very difficult discipline and not something you normally practise on an e-bike. He has an incredibly confident and calm way of explaining each step and quickly recognises my weaknesses and triggers. He never gets tired of explaining things again, even when I keep struggling at the same points, such as controlled pedalling and body tension. Someone else in our group was afraid of an exposed trail. Marc reassured her mentally and had such a calming effect that she rode everything in the end. Top job, Marc – gladly again next time.
Brilliant training, a likeable guide and extremely knowledgeable. I would happily book again!
I spent four days mountain biking in Vinschgau with my colleagues Stefan and Wolfgang. By a happy coincidence, we booked Marc Theiner for two fantastic tours. As the oldest rider, I never thought I would ride a difficult S3 trail. But Marc used his professional and technical expertise to prepare me so well that I mastered the challenge. We wish him continued enjoyment and every success in his career. In short, we can recommend Marc without reservation. Keep it up!
We were lucky enough to meet Marc on a guided tour and immediately booked two more tours afterwards. Everything was very relaxed from the start, and we had a lot of fun …
Thumbs up for Marc. If you are looking for a guide in Vinschgau, he knows all the trails. As an enduro racer, he also demonstrates the perfect line ahead of you. You can also book riding-skills coaching.
