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.

A place of encounter

The Esplanade in Gmunden stretches picturesquely from Cafe Kandur to the Gmunden Yacht Club. This beautiful promenade on the shores of Lake Traunsee invites you to take a leisurely stroll and offers a magnificent view of the clear water and the surrounding mountains. Magnificent villas, historic buildings and charming cafés can be found along the esplanade, inviting you to linger.

History: Our esplanade was built between 1851 and 1862 under Mayor Johann Tagwerker and was an important facility for the then emerging tourism in the spa town of Gmunden. Most of the material needed to fill the lake was mined from the Hochkogel and some of it was brought to the construction site in specially built chutes. The material freed up by the demolition of the Upper Gate Tower in 1854 was also used to fill in the esplanade. Planted with two rows of chestnut trees, the construction of the esplanade was completed in 1862.
