In the national park, cycling is only permitted on the paths approved for this purpose in order to protect the sensitive habitats of the animals and plants and to avoid conflicts between user groups. Therefore, please adhere to the regulations.
This bicycle/MTB highlight is on a section of the route that has been approved for cyclists for a trial period of 3 years.
Until now, according to the regulations from 1992 and the 2012 amendment, cycling was only permitted on the following roads: 1. Hirschbichlstraße (state road 2099) and from the Bindalm bus stop to the alpine huts on the Bindalm; 2. Eiskar forest road to the junction of the path to the Schhärtenalm; 3. Eckau forest road to Eckau Alm with junction to the Schwarzederer turning area; 4. Schappachstraße and Hammerstielstraße to Kühroint - turning area in front of the Archenkanzel - and forest road to Herrenroint; 5. Gotzenstrasse and Hochbahnweg to Gotzenalm and access to the Stahlhaus; 6. Ligeretstrasse. The addition of approved cycle paths from 2012 can be found in the official gazette for the Berchtesgadener Land district no. 20 dated May 15, 2012 on page 127ff. (lra-bgl.de/t/das-landratsamt/amtsblaetter/). The regulation is based on Article 31, paragraph 1 and Article 43, paragraph 2, no. 3 of the Bavarian Nature Conservation Act (BayNatSchG).
In addition, the following sections have now been opened on a trial basis (see press release from the LRA Berchtesgadener Land dated April 5, 2024): 7.
