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 "Kalmoos Church" (place of happiness)

Bad Goisern am Hallstättersee, Oberösterreich, Österreich
  • pets allowed
  • Suitable for groups

An interesting cave in the rocks below the Goisern Hut. In the years of Religious Reformation, almost the entire Upper Austrian Salzkammergut became protestant. Pressure, however, from the strict catholic Habsburger, became too great.

The secret church in the cave

Up to 25th October 1601, the inhabitants of the local salt-mining villages sought to celebrate their religious beliefs and to protect them right up to the last minute. As such they held meetings and worshipped in secret locations. Translations of the religious scriptures by Martin Luther were indispensable, and preaching by mouth was not enough. And so these bibles were smuggled from the Nuremberg area in Germany via the former "Bibelweg" (the way of the bible) to Austria. The route is known today as the Austriaweg.

The "Kalmoos church" is one of the many locations where secret services of religious worship were held. The people of Gosau and Bad Goisern had to walk for more than two hours high in to the mountains.


The church as a place of power

Thousands of prayers, feelings of desperation, hope and unconditional belief have been witnessed within these rock walls. Sit down in the half light of this cave and think of the energy hidden inside. This is the perfect place to come and discover what exactly it is you are seeking to achieve in life and how you can best reach your aims.

The Kalmoos Church "energy- giving cave" is located directly on the trail from the Goisern hut to the Kalmberg

A visit to the Goisern hut for refreshments and a brief diversion to the native American's head rock formation, close to the summit of the Kalmberg, are also worthwhile.
