Hi Stephan,

I think it will be a little bit difficulty to ride offroad in the 
alpes in april. Ther will be too much snow on the mountain roads.

Today we had a little blizzard here in south bavaria, now roads and 
railroads here are temporarily closed. And we are only at the edge of 
the alpes!

Just take a look on your map: mostly, there a closing times for high 
passes on the maps. There are only few high passes open in 
March/April.

This year we had a lot of snow on the alpes (just remember the 
avalanches in Switzerland and Austria). 

So I think youŽll have to go further south than the alpes.

Ciao,

Marco
