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 hike to the Lilchtenberg is one of the most popular hikes. Starting point is directly at the rehabilitation centre of Kogl or at the country inn Spitzerwirt. The signposted hiking trail 1c is also the most direct route to the Attergau observation Tower.

From the parking lot at Landgasthof Spitzerwirt, hike right along the road, past the Reha Center to the Mair-Zeininger carpentry shop. Past this, the road leads in the direction of Lichtenberg into the forest and winds continuously up the mountain. After about 2 km you leave the road and turn right into a forest path.
You hike alternately on forest roads and forest paths until you reach the junction "Attergauer Aussichtsturm", which you reach from here in about 10 minutes. The same path leads back to the starting point.

There is also the possibility to extend this tour a bit. You can make the way back via the "Klauswald". Here you go from the "Attergauer Aussichtsturm" to the Berggasthof Danter and further along a piece of meadow path to the crossroads in the forest. Now follow the "Hubert-Gantioler-Weg" downhill to the forest road and turn left - you hike via the Klauswald and the Koglberg back to the starting point.
