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.

limited open: Einschränkungen Wanderweg Schafberg ab Eisenau
Time period: 15.03.2025 - 31.12.2025

Description: An early onset of winter in September 2024 caused countless trees to fall across the hiking trail between Eisenau and Suissensee. The path is passable with severe restrictions. It is currently not possible for volunteers to repair the forest damage in this inaccessible area due to the danger to life. A solution to the problem is being worked on.

roadblock: Scharfling - Eisenau
Time period: 23.06.2025 - 31.08.2025

Schafberg - option 1 = via Mühlleiten
Schafberg hike via Mühlleiten

You don't have to be in St. Wolfgang to get to the top of the Schafberg. The Schafberg can also be climbed from Unterach.

Start at the bridge in the Mühlleiten district. Follow the forest path and turn left at the next junction. About 20 minutes later, you cross the forest road. You then hike along numerous hairpin bends to the Eisenaueralm. This is located at an altitude of around 1000 metres. The catered Buchberghütte is on the right. Behind the hut, a path on the right leads up to the forest.

After around 45 minutes, you will finally reach the saddle at the picturesque Suissensee lake. Keep left there and hike along the Purtschellersteig trail to the Schafberg lakes. Now it's not far to the Schafberg summit. Here, at an altitude of 1782 metres, you can enjoy a magnificent view of Lake Attersee and fortify yourself for the descent in the Himmelspforthütte hut.

Starting point: Mühlleiten in Unterach
Destination: Schafbergspitze
