Description:
At the same time, this bike tour also takes you to one of the most historic valleys in the country, the "Valley of the Hammers". The river was the transport route for the iron of the ore mountain. That is why countless hammer mills were built along the Enns to process the valuable raw material. Their owners came to wealth and became "Black Counts" in the vernacular. At Altenmarkt you reach Upper Austrian territory on the Enns Valley Cycle Path coming from Styria.

Through the wild and romantic southeast of Upper Austria you cycle along the Enns to Weyer. In the magnificent townscape, the wealth from iron processing has left visible traces. In Großraming a visit to the carriage museum is worthwhile, in Reichraming you should make a stop at the National Park Visitor Center. In the exhibition "Wunderwelt Waldwildnis" you can dive into the secrets of the Kalkalpen National Park.


In Losenstein on the "path of the nail smiths" and in Ternberg in the "valley of the feitelmacher" Ternberg you are on the tracks of iron . Via Garsten you let your bikes roll to the romantic city of Steyr, where over centuries a city ensemble in various architectural styles has been created. Finally, it's time to get back on the saddle, because the last stage is still ahead of you, the one to Enns, the oldest city in Austria. Here the Enns flows into the Danube, and its cycle path is connected to the Danube Cycle Path.
