15km long biking trail launched in Abu Dhabi

Trail X will also offer uninterrupted views of the capital’s majestic skyline.

Trail X, the first mountain bike trail of its kind in Abu Dhabi, has been inaugurated on Hudayriyat Island by Chairman of Abu Dhabi Executive Office His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.

Offering 15km of uninterrupted mountain bike trail built to complement Hudayriyat Island’s existing cycling trails, Trail X is designed to international standards, with tracks and topography that simulate natural terrain and uninterrupted views of the capital’s majestic skyline.

 

 

The tracks are compatible with electric bikes and open to cyclists across all age groups and skill levels.

The launch of Trail X underscores Abu Dhabi Government’s vision to position the emirate as a regional hub for cycling and sports.

The platform aims to further promote cycling as a health and leisure activity, as a sustainable means of transport, and as a competitive sport for amateurs and professionals.

Abu Dhabi Loop, a 109km designated cycling track linking attractions around the city, and a new 3,500 seater velodrome on Hudayriyat that will offer track racing facilities are also on the agenda.
