Uphill South Trail (Burgenland Trails, Naturpark Geschriebenstein)

Highlight • Trail

For once I didn't ride the Uphill Trail because after the long journey we wanted to ride downhill as often as possible, although the departure times of the shuttle absolutely had to be changed!

Today's program included the Burgenland Trails. I had already heard a lot about the new bike park in Burgenland and I was very curious, so let's go. I started in Rechnitz, at the bathing lake, there are enough parking spaces, I bought the ticket online for € 8.-.

..sounds strange, but thanks to the Burgenland Trails, which will open in 2022, it will totally pay off. Wiener Nebel Escape to the sun included.
From Lockenhaus first on a forest road, then on beautiful uphill trails to the highest peak in Burgenland, the Gewrittenstein at 884 meters.
