Cycling in the Salzburg district
Cycling in the Salzburg region is always an adventure
The Salzburg region is known for many features, but not everyone is aware that some of the best cycling opportunities in the country can be found just outside the city of Mozart. It's true! Beautiful rolling hills, quiet side roads, spectacular forest paths and, for those who want them, steep mountain climbs. What more could the cyclist's heart desire?
Over the hills and around the lakes on fantastic cycle paths
If you'd like to get out and pedalling after your conference at the Landgasthof Kirchbichl, you'll love the Salzburg region. You don't even have to exert yourself if you don't want to – many tours and cycling routes follow pleasant cycle paths for many kilometres without any need for stress or hurry. Start your exploration of the most beautiful cycling routes in the region right outside the doors of the Landgasthof Kirchbichl.
Pedal power or e-biking
The former Ischlerbahn railway line offers a blissfully relaxing pathway into the Salzkammergut region. The well-known Salzkammergut Cycleway takes you to the most famous sites in the spectacular cycling region. And if you don't want to have to work too hard, an e-bike is a great option. There are plenty of stopping points where you can charge up the bicycle, and many restaurants and huts offer charging facilities for bikes as well as the opportunity to recharge your own batteries.
The Salzkammergut is also a great place to take your mountain bike
If you feel more at home on a mountain bike, we can recommend any number of mountain bike trails and tours in the Salzkammergut region. With a selection of over 60 different tours and trail options, every mountain bike enthusiast is sure to find the perfect choice. Would you like to climb steep forest paths? Welcome to the Salzkammergut. And if lively single trails are more your thing, you might try the Feuerkogel in the Traunsee region or the area around the Obertraun bike arena.
A lap of the Dachstein, please!
If you're looking for the ultimate outdoor experience in a spectacular landscape, you need to take a closer look at the Dachstein circuit. It takes three days to ride around the Dachstein massif, a route that leads deep into the diverse alpine landscape of the Salzkammergut region. There are plenty of establishments along the route offering a full service and even baggage transport to ensure that the Dachstein circuit is an experience available to every ambitious mountain bike enthusiast.
