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.

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.

Calvary chapel

Windischgarsten, Oberösterreich, Österreich

Suitable for groups

The Calvary Church offers a wonderful view over the Windischgarstnertal!

As early as 1741, large Passion processions are said to have taken place to the crucifixion group on the mountain, and today the parish of St. Jakob von Windischgarsten goes to the Kalvarienberg church every Friday during Lent to pray and celebrate services there.

The impetus for the construction of the Kalvarienberg church was given by Provost Grundtner from Spital am Pyhrn in 1778, but the church was not built until the 1940s with the support of the citizens of Windischgarsten. Schoolchildren carried the bricks up the hill by hand. In Advent 1843, the church was completed in the simple Baroque style. The burial chapel was later added to the chancel. The Calvary Church was consecrated on 20 July 1844. It was renovated in 1995.

Opening hours

The church is open during the Upper Austrian summer holidays from 8 AM to 6 PM and for Holy Masses.
Otherwise, it can only be visited from the outside.
