“Trail Dreams” returns for a second season: Tom Oehler sets off for new Alpine trails

The documentary series “Trail Dreams” is going into its second round: Innsbruck-based media house REC3 is planning a new season with mountain bike pro and former trial world champion Tom Oehler. Once again, Tom sets out in search of the perfect trail in the most spectacular regions of the Alps.

The series stays true to its proven concept: each episode is dedicated to one region and its own theme, with a signature trail at its heart – from flow trails to technical lines. Along the way, Tom meets the locals who shape the bike scene and explores the history, culture and cuisine of each destination, from old alpine paths to the trail pioneers.

What’s new is the length: the second season comprises six episodes of 45 minutes each. The longer running time gives the documentary storytelling more room – for regional culture, genuine encounters and mountain biking in all its variety. Filming will take place in spring and summer 2027, with completion planned between summer and autumn 2027.

As a former trial world champion, Tom Oehler is one of Austria’s best-known bike professionals. Now based in Innsbruck, he has shifted his passion to high-alpine e-mountain biking. On camera, he wins people over not only with his riding skills but above all with his down-to-earth manner and genuine curiosity about the people he meets along the way.

REC3 was founded in Kitzbühel in 2018 and is now based in Innsbruck. The media house tells stories from adventure, sport and travel and specialises in high-quality outdoor and sports documentaries – including the series “First Chair” with Olympic champion Viktoria Rebensburg and “Slope Gems”.
