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

A wheel leaning against a fence placed in front of a cliff at the Eternal Wall — A bike tour to the Eternal Wall - pure thrill

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.

Event information

Summer opening of the Bärenriedlau Hut: with new photo exhibition "Between rock and sky"

A monument with history Today, the 300-year-old Bärenriedlau Hut is one of the most culturally and historically significant buildings in the Pyhrn-Priel region. Built in the early 18th century, it initially served as simple accommodation for shepherds and hunters and later as hunting quarters for Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Today it is owned by the Austrian Federal Forests and is considered a historical jewel in the Kalkalpen National Park.

From 2011 to 2014, the hut was renovated with great care and craftsmanship in keeping with its listed status by the National Park Authority of the Austrian Federal Forests and the Kalkalpen National Park. From August 14 to September 7, 2025, the hut can be visited free of charge and without registration from Thursday to Sunday between 10 am and 3 pm.

National park ranger Lisi provides information on site about the history of the building and the transformation of the region - from an imperial hunting ground to today's wildlife sanctuary in the protected area.

Arrival & hike
The hut is remote and can only be reached on foot.
Access is possible via the following paths: - Trail no. 461 from the village of St. Pankraz - Trail no. 462/461 from Roßleithen
Alternatively: From the Teufelskirche parking lot, follow the signs for "National Park Entrance" and follow Langer-Graben-Straße for around 6 km through wild and romantic countryside until you reach the junction with marked trail no. 461. A good level of fitness is required for the ascent (approx. 800 vertical meters, walking time 2.5 to 3 hours in partly steep terrain).
As the hut is not staffed, you must bring your own snacks and sufficient drinking water. In the event of persistent heavy rain, the hut remains closed for safety reasons
