Ready for very special vacation moments on two wheels?
They are guaranteed in Hinterstoder!
Detailed route for bikers:
From the Höss middle station, head east along a flat gravel road for around one kilometer to the Edtbauernalm.
The mountain bike route then turns right at the youth recreation center and then left again along an alpine path to the edge of the terrain.
The route initially descends steeply.
Cyclists can enjoy the wonderful panorama. After one kilometer, you finally reach the Rottal valley via an alpine path that is partly carved into the rocks.
On the forest road that follows, it's up and down again!
And this always alternates until the route leads downhill for several kilometers to Steyrsbergerreith. One hairpin bend after another leads downhill to the Schafferteich pond.
Once you reach the asphalt road, the Schaffergut and then Vorderstoder are not far away.
There, take a sharp left onto the cycle route towards Hinterstoder and pedal hard once again - with the destination firmly in sight!
Good to know: The mountain bike route is signposted throughout.
