ヴィルダルペンの峠・トップ8

As a true racing cyclist, you simply have to visit this place. :-)

Here, the R7 Enns cycle path runs directly along the main road, with a few exceptions (tunnels), meaning you have to share the road with cars, motorbikes and buses. For me, however, on a beautiful Saturday, it was surprisingly pleasant 👌 Scenery: A dream!

Good condition!

The Häuslalmhütte is also open in early spring at around 1500m. With Grödeln, it can also be easily reached in winter via a wide snow field and offers food and drinks to strengthen yourself.

Enchanting hut also easily accessible with children 🤗

The namesake of the Torsattel Tour. You can ride the tour in both directions (coming from Gams / the Nothklamm or from Wildalpen). Everything forest road - no stop on the way. There is a summit book at the Torsattel.

The old driveway, which is now private, is great for fans of steep inclines. Asking for permission is better than just driving here... (by the way, it has worked almost everywhere so far and the owners are happy)

By Eastern Austrian standards, the Zellerrain is a pleasantly high pass in the Ybbstal Alps, right on the border between Lower Austria and Styria. It connects the well-known Marian pilgrimage site of Mariazell in the east with the Ybbstal in the west and is an important transport connection, not only because of the federal highway 71, which was rerouted to the east in 2004. It's actually a shame for the tormentor, as the old road had gradients of well over 20% , good of course for motorized traffic and the rest of the cycling world. Nevertheless, the transition is little used. Apart from a few timber trucks, the motorcyclists, who always appear in packs, only bother the pedaller when contemplatively climbing this mountain road at the weekend. The Ybbs, which is still called the Ois here, has its source at the foot of the Großer Zellerhut and accompanies cyclists downhill to Lunz am See, where it changes its name. Due to the heavy rainfall in traffic jams and the resulting risk of avalanches, the Zellerrain is sometimes closed in winter, but on the first spring tours you can see the effects of the forces of nature on the flora and the road - impressive and frightening at the same time. In addition, for the same reason, it is quite prone to rain, if it looks a bit like rain when you get there, you will definitely get wet here. In the good years of Austrian cycling, the Zellerrain was a mountain classification in the Vienna-Gresten-Vienna classic, which was renamed Uniqa-Classic in 2000 and was held for the last time in 2005.
