エルスベーテンのおすすめツーリングルート

Excellent guesthouse directly on the Gaisberg summit with sensational panoramic views

The fortress, whose construction began in 1077, sits 506 meters above the old town. It offers a breathtaking panoramic view over the city's rooftops. Visitors can reach the fortress either on foot (about 10 minutes) or by funicular railway.

The ascent to the Postalm via Weißenbach begins directly at Lake Wolfgangsee and leads along the Postalm road up to the Lienbachsattel at approximately 1,300 meters. Over a distance of just under 17 kilometers, the route climbs approximately 780 meters in elevation. The gradient remains moderate for the most part, but increases significantly in the switchbacks in the upper section. The trail initially runs idyllically through the Weißenbachtal valley, later offering sweeping views of alpine pastures and the surrounding mountains. For cyclists, the route is a scenic yet challenging tour, rewarded with the arrival at the Postalm, one of the largest alpine pasture areas in Austria.

Well-developed route. Large area away from heavy traffic. Great scenery, magnificent views.
