Multifunctional Moving Carpet carries mountain bikers in the summer and skiers in the winter
At the Bike Beginner Park in Serfaus (Tyrol, Austria), beginners can have fun gaining their first experiences on the trail. A 63-meter-long Sunkid Moving Carpet makes it easy to get started in this trendy summer sport and creates the ideal conditions for plenty of repeat runs.
Picking up speed, braking at the right moment, steering by shifting your weight, and many more athletic challenges: Cycling on unfamiliar terrain really puts young mountain bikers to the test. The intuitive and easy ascent via the modern Sunkid Moving Carpet offers a welcome change of pace and time to rest.
Even the youngest children can use the conveyor belt on their own—and transport their bikes effortlessly. The proven “Blue Eye” conveyor belt guarantees optimal grip in all weather conditions.
At the same time, the Moving Carpet serves as family-friendly infrastructure: Parents and grandparents ride up alongside their young cyclists to offer valuable tips for the next descent. Or they can take photos and videos of their kids on the trail during the ascent.
One conveyor belt, two sports, used year-round: In winter, the Sunkid Moving Carpet—delivered in 2023—serves higher up in the ski area of this family-friendly destination. Winter sports enthusiasts enjoy a wind-protected ascent in the light-filled EVO Gallery. Easy-to-open slide-up emergency exits blend perfectly between the high-quality aluminum arches and polycarbonate panels. PVC tarps with side zippers securely close the entrance and exit when the conveyor is not in operation (at night, during bad weather, etc.).
During summer bike season, the customer replaces the side covers—lined with sturdy carpet—with custom-cut wooden planks. Thanks to their natural appearance and the installation of the facility between ground-level concrete walls, no side metal panels are necessary to ensure passenger safety, and the “Moving Carpet” blends harmoniously into the overall design of the Bike Beginner Park.
