    Tips

    The paved road along the Vellach River has very little traffic, as only local residents are permitted to use it. Be aware of cross traffic, driveways, etc., in places! The scenery is mostly shaded, and you'll be accompanied by the rushing sound of the Vellach as it winds its way through the scree. There are playgrounds and rest areas along the way, but also a short, very rockfall-prone section that you should drive through quickly.

    I like this route with its rushing water and diverse rock formations. The path climbs gently but steadily towards Eisenkappel. There are no places to stop for refreshments, but you can refill your water bottles at the Jakobsquelle spring.
