View of the Schlegeis Dam

Highlight • Monument

This dam is very impressive. You can take pictures with a self-timer and send them to yourself. Depending on the weather, the water level shows whether it has rained a lot or not.

Schlegeis Dam Alternative Bike Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

... very nicely laid out bike path for MTB and touring bikes, bypasses the toll station tunnel to (from) Schlegeis reservoir - racing cyclists should stay on the tar road, cyclists don't pay tolls ...

From Mayrhofen we drove along the Schlegeis Alpine Road to the dam, partly on the cycle path and MTB route.
Nice tour!

May 29, 2024,Schlegeisspeicher 〽️🚵🏻‍♀️🌤️🤩

⚠️ Don't forget your lights - there are a few tunnels on the route! And with your MTB, take the designated MTB route uphill instead of the toll road! Going downhill is no problem. Part of the toll road is only open in one direction at a time by traffic lights and going uphill you can't get to the top …

🚴‍♂️ When Your Legs Ask for a “Lighter Ride” – and the Alps Say Otherwise
You've got a route planned with "moderate" gradients of 8–9%, and after several days of grinding up double-digit climbs that flirted shamelessly with 20%, a sense of confidence settles into your legs. The mind buzzes with anticipation, and the body is itching for the next …

September 21, 2024,Von Mayrhofen zum Schlegeis Speicher

From Mayrhofen up to Schlegeis Seicher is a sporting challenge, even with an e-bike. The path is well developed and can also be managed with a trekking bike, but be careful, you should have a 750 kWh battery or be in very good shape. A charger or a second battery is not to be sniffed at. Basically it is uphill …

July 22, 2025,Burgstall - Mayrhofen -Schlegeisspeicher, eine schöne Tour

After having already been to Little Tibet on my folding bike, I also wanted to explore the Schlegeis Reservoir, so this year I'm riding my old mountain bike! It was a record altitude for me this year, but it actually went quite well! I was really lucky; the roads were already very wet on the way down, and when I …

July 25, 2024,Mountainbikegeführte Wandertour zum Schlegeisspeicher

due to carelessness and lack of checking, started with only 60% battery. After 20km at the toll station, it only showed 20%. Being economical as I am (a little reserve for the return journey can't hurt) I turned it off and had to push the bike for most of the last 10km... Giving up would have been an option, but …
