The tour

A very scenic bike tour through beautiful landscapes. Both comfortable and challenging, this tour takes you along forest and asphalt roads, past streams and also to the Eschachalm, which is an ideal starting point for a hike to the wonderful Duisitzkarsee.

Hiking tips: 


Turn-by-turn directions
The best way to combine the tour with the Rohrmoos round is to follow the signs to the car park of the Eschachalm, which is the starting point for very nice hikes to the Duisitzkarsee or the Keinprechthütte. If you want to savour the bike experience further, continue in the direction of Rohrmoos. If you already have tired feet from the hike, you simply ride back to Schladming via the Talbach gorge.
