Certainly one of the most beautiful climbs you can do in the area (and perhaps even Austria). Largely parallel to the Kuhtai, you cycle to the Finstertal reservoir. With an average gradient of 7.5 percent, it's no picnic, but at the top, it's worth every single drop of sweat! 🥵

A scenic climb, but one that's certainly challenging: In just under 18 kilometers, you'll conquer a whopping 1,240 meters of elevation gain with an average gradient of 6.9 percent. The finest asphalt provides the ideal base.
