Waterfalls and Scenic Views on the Postalm Road

Highlight • Waterfall

A wonderful road up to the Postalm. On the way you will pass waterfalls and enjoy a great view - this makes it much easier to climb uphill.

Last day in the Salzkammergut. First up the paved ascent to the Postalm and then over two crisp gravel climbs to get to the optical highlight of the trip. Along the Ackersbach to the Genneralm you will be stunned by the view. In a positive sense. 💘

September 25, 2021,Salzkammergut - Post- und Genneralm

We snaked our way up to the plateau via the asphalt ascent to the Postalm. But after a short time it goes down again and then goes up to the next piece.

Originally, I had planned to ride via Genneralm and Postalm to Lake Wolfgangsee. From there, I would continue up over Lake Attersee and Lake Mondsee, and then back via Lake Wolfgangsee and Lake Fuschlsee. Everything was going great until just before Postalm, when I got the almost traditional flat tire. This time, however, the pump wouldn't release the valve. After …
