Still no winter in sight 😳 Then we'll train our calves for the upcoming bike season! Today's tour:

A steep, paved road leads up from the Algen district of Salzburg, which is otherwise only allowed to be used by residents and emergency vehicles. Accordingly, it is possibly the Gaisberg ascent with the least traffic! 👌
