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 Heilbronn circular hiking trail is a very family-friendly and easy-to-walk karst hiking trail that leads past the Dachstein shark and the Heilbronn Cross.
The family-friendly circular hiking trail at over 2000 m altitude
From Obertraun (510 m), the Dachstein Krippeinstein cable car takes you over 1,600 metres in altitude. At Krippenstein (2,100 m), you can look out over the immensely wide Dachstein plateau
From the mountain station of the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car, the well-maintained trail leads over hilly terrain, which is densely overgrown with leguminous pines.
After approx. 45 minutes walk you will reach the Dachstein shark, the latest attraction on the circular hiking trail. It is particularly popular with younger hikers because you can climb into the shark and marvel at the beautiful landscape through its mouth. The Dachstein shark therefore quickly became a popular photopoint.
After another 45 minutes, the circular hiking trail leads you to the Heilbronner Kreuz. This cross commemorates the tragedy on the Dachstein at Easter in 1954, when 10 pupils from Heilbronn and 3 teachers lost their lives during a hike into the Dachstein massif when the weather fell.
Continue westwards - past Hirzkarsee - to Krippeneck and the Gjaidstation of the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car (another 1.5 hours). Take a 15-minute walk to the terrace of the Gjaid Alm for refreshments. Afterwards, you can take all three sections of the cable car over the Krippenstein back down to the valley!
Our tip: Make a stopover at the Dachstein Krippenstein. Take another 2 hours and visit the viewing platform "5fingers" and the World Heritage Spiral. You will be rewarded with a fantastic view of the entire World Heritage region. The Lodge am Krippenstein and the Mountain Restaurant Dachstein Krippenstein will take care of your physical well-being.
