Leisure cyclists and mountain bikers will find an official network of trails with around 300 kilometres in Gastein. Whether you’re a sporty mountain biker, an uphill fan with summit ambitions or a relaxed e-biker: the 20 marked bike routes on varied paths and forest roads offer ideal variety. For example, the Gastein Valley cycle path from Böckstein to Klammstein or the “Bertahof” trail route.
Take a break! A stop at serviced alpine pastures with breathtaking views makes the experience especially enjoyable.
For e-bikers
Hochkönig
Steep climbs and long tours can be mastered with ease on an e-bike – that’s why e-bikes are often used in Hochkönig. The Salzburg region is known and popular for MTB tours against a breathtaking mountain backdrop.
Well-deserved refreshment is provided by the rustic and cosy alpine huts along the many trails. Cyclists of all ages enjoy the tasty snack. Meanwhile, the bikes can recharge at the mountain charging stations.
The newest challenge with the (e-)bike takes bike and nature enthusiasts through the most beautiful corners of the Hochkönig region over 3 days. Light, medium or big? Depending on your fitness and motivation, you can choose between 3 different levels of difficulty and a distance of 70 to 170 km. Your luggage is transported to the next accommodation during the tour, so you can focus fully on cycling.
For “alpine pasture cyclists” – Bike & Hike
Grossarltal
Grossarltal is known for its large number of serviced alpine huts, which have also earned it the name “Valley of the Alpine Pastures”. Mountain bikers can expect a network of 160 km of trails and 14,000 metres of elevation gain here.
Smart bikers ride “with a tailwind” – they rent a state-of-the-art e-mountain bike on site. Sporting bikers then head for one or another summit on foot after arriving at the mountain hut. A summit success is followed by a cosy alpine snack and then a leisurely descent into the valley.
Tip: Weekly guided bike tours. Bike shuttle into Gastein Valley via Kreuzkogel and Fulseck from Grossarl to Dorfgastein, then back and descent on the Grossarl side via the approx. 10 km long Grossarltal single trail.
