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 Mariazellerwege consists of several sections. They share a common goal: the pilgrimage site Mariazell in northern Styria. This network of paths emerged through the many foot pilgrims who sought their way to the Mariazell pilgrimage church in various ways.

The hike on trails 06 and 04 starts at the town square in Steyr and leads over Grünmarkt and the Schönauer Bridge, upstream along the Enns to Isabellenhofweg and eastwards on trail 06 to St. Ulrich (approx. 4 km). The path climbs steeply past the Schoiber Inn to Damberg (807 m) with the observation tower offering a magnificent view of the foothills around Steyr. From here it descends to Hertlerwiese (666 m), then skirts Schwarzberg on a forest road to Willeitenberg (837 m), where it meets the Alpine long-distance trail 04 (Salzburg Mariazellerweg). Now it goes downhill to Wolfsgrub (695 m) and then over Plattenberg to Spadenberg, the highest point of this stage (1000 m). Along the ridge it leads to Geierkogel (886 m) and via the Glasner Hut to Maria Neustift (613 m).

From Steyr to Berggasthof Schoiber about 2 hours, another 3 hours to Plattenberg (Hinterplatten farm), from there another 3 hours to Maria Neustift (route via Spadenberg).
