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.

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.

One of many ways to conquer the Schafberg!

Caution - alpine experience required from Eisenau-Alm!

We park at the car park of the public state bathing area. In the water we see a stone with two crosses after which the area here is named "Kreuzstein" . From there, the trail climbs steeply into the forest, where the Waterfall Kreuzstein awaits us as the first highlight after 10 minutes. Continuing up through the forest over several streams and a spectacular bridge construction with well-secured ladders, we reach a hunting lodge with a fantastic view over Lake Mondsee. From here, it is only a few minutes until we reach the Eisenauer Alm. This route is also suitable for children and is a unique experience.
At Eisenau, turn right across alpine meadows and back into the forest. This is followed by a steep ascent to Suissensee. Once at the top, turn right and continue under the Schafberg summit. The last section is the so-called Himmelspforte - it gets a little tricky here. The steep and rocky path is very demanding for hikers and should only be tackled in dry conditions.
The Schafberg awaits us with a fantastic view!
Starting point: Kreuzstein
