Schönfeldsattel Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Honestly, one of the best passes I've ever ridden. The best thing: No motorcyclists, it's too small and twisted for them and it's too far out of the way! There are also moderate gradients of around three to seven percent, which are pleasant to ride. And what’s more, a fantastic, natural landscape. 10/10!

Schönfeldsattel Pass Summit

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Very flat pass. At the top there is a mountain hut for sleeping and eating. Strictly speaking, the top of the pass is a little later, there are two more switchbacks up there, but that is to be seen as the true top of the pass :)

Katschberg - Liesertal - Maltatal: cycle tour

Endurance is certainly required on this tour - we have an approx. 34 km long bike tour (there & back) ahead of us. We start the tour in the artist town of Gmünd. The route meanders mostly along the Malta River to the "Hinteres Maltatal". We come through several small towns and have the opportunity to discover flora and fauna off the main road. We pass the Maltatal donkey park, Fallbach - Carinthia's highest waterfall with the Fallbach water adventure park before we reach our destination, the toll station. We can take a break in the "Alpenrestaurant Fallerhütte".
Motivated, we then start the return journey. Many rest areas along the Malta River invite you to make a stopover.

Today's stage was divided into three sections. The first section was pleasant along the Mur Cycle Path. The next section led steadily uphill, following the Bundschuhbach stream to the highest point of our journey at 1,775 m above sea level, the Schönfeld Saddle at 1,740 m above sea level.
