Our special mountain biking tour tips

  • the Hallstättersee-Koppenwinkel-Round – 30 km, 150 metres of change in altitude – wonderful sight to the village of Hallstatt – nature of Koppenwinkelsee
  • the Weissenbach Round – 21 km, 240 metres of change in altitude – our tour for the afternoon after your trip
  • the Hochmuth-Round – 23 km, 500 meters of change in altitude – nice tour for half- a – day
  • the Blaa-Alm Round– 45.5 km, 960 metres of change in altitude – a classic to get started and get to know the region, but also THE tour to take when it is very hot, since most of the change in altitude has to be conquered at the beginning of the tour and Altaussee Lake is a welcome stop off to cool down

  • the Kaiser Tour – 38 km, 770 metres of change in altitude – The tour doesn't just earn its name Kaiser Tour because it leads through the forests and along the paths that Franz and Sis once travelled on foot and by carriage, but primarily because of the highlights it offers. You will see the Ewige Wand and the Tauernweg to Ischl and it has lots of cozy cabins with the Ratluck'n and Hoisenradalm to offer.
  • the Sandling-Round - 35 km, 1350 metres of change in altidude – have a break at lake Altausee and a Kaiserschmarrn at the Hütteneck-hut
  • the Raschberg Round – 52.50 km, 1,610 metres of change in altitude – Into the Ausseerland and over the challenging Grabenbach back up to the Raschberg – marvelous view of one of the best-known mountain meadows in the Salzkammergut – the Hütteneckalm – the Kaiserschmarrn alone is reason enough for a visit!
  • the Durchgangsalm-Round – 48 km, 1380 Hütteneckalm – The tour starts on Lake Hallstatt and leads along the new bike path with a view of the world-famous city of Hallstatt before the path becomes steep in the Echerntal on the way to Gosau – a tour that offers everything – beautiful views, cosy meadows, challenging inclines and declines.
  • the Salzkammergut 5 Lake Tour (lake Wolfgangsee, Schwarzensee, etc.) – 60 km, 1350 Hütteneckalm – Mountains and lakes: a combination that the Salzkammergut presents spectacularly, beautiful views and also very appropriate for bikers who without a lot of technical skills.

The church in St. Agatha is an integral part of the Catholic parish in Bad Goisern.

Two Catholic churches 

In earlier times, St. Agatha had aspirations to become an independent town. It is therefore not surprising that there are two Catholic churches in Bad Goisern am Hallstättersee there is a second Catholic church.
The little church was built under priest Coloan Mühlwanger and first mentioned in a document in 1395. The high altar is made of grotto and sandstone. Behind it you can see a secco painting (this technique involves painting on dry plaster) The two side altars date from 1674 and 1685. On the way from Bad Goisern to St. Agahta are the four so-called Stambach chapels with sculptural depictions of the rosary. The crucifixion group by the Mondese master Meinrad Guggenbichler

Pilgrimage trail

A visit to the church in St. Agatha can be ideally combined with a short pilgrimage trail along small chapels starting from Bad Goisern. This pilgrimage trail starts at the chapel of the Stieger joinery and continues via Stambach and ends at the church of St. Agatha
