Greuth Wooden Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The wooden bridge at Greuth leads over the Great Dürrenbach, which rises rapidly, especially after the snow melt. A detour is worth the bridge.

Feistritz Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

If you are lucky you will have the view on the lake while it is a perfect mirror! And of course the path along the lake is smooth champagne gravel!

Feistritz Cycle Path R1

Drau Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The bike path is nice to ride. But after a few kilometers it gets a bit monotonous. It is therefore always worth making a detour inland from the Drau.

Lake Feistritz

Highlight • Lake

The Feistritzer See is a barrage on the Drau. The water is usually very calm and the mountains on the other shore are reflected in the lake. Very idyllic part of the Drau Cycle Path.

July 12, 2023,Drauradweg 4. Etappe: Villach - Ferlach

"The day when the rain came..." was the one that took us from Villach to Ferlach on our bikes along the Drau Cycle Path. Thunderstorms were already announced for the two previous days, but where we were, they stayed away. But today we were able to unpack our rain gear on the way: we didn't take it with us for …

Everything was fine today. The weather was good, the tour wasn't that strenuous, a nice break with a cappuccino was possible, the Karawanken mountains were impressive and at the end it was comfortable, delicious and inexpensive at Gasthof Plasch.

I decided to ride to Ferlach after having a cold coke and a serving of chips. This leg was much more interesting and quite varied in scenery. It was also very hot at a max of 36 degrees.

One waterway I rode beside for some time was a trickle compared to its actual width as it is fed from the …

The tour today with a lot of sun again 🌞 just wonderful 😊 But dubbed "difficult" by komoot, it also lived up to this 🤨 First of all, there were crisp and narrow climbs and secondly, there was not an opportunity to stop for refreshments over 40 km 😕
Either closed, no longer existing or only open from Wed or …

A stay in this region definitely includes cycling at least a section along the Drau river through the Rosental valley.

The predicted maximum temperature was 33 degrees for Rosegg, and we thought it would be okay right by the water. It was. But if it gets any hotter, it won't be fun anymore. We have other activities and some relaxation …

Today's section of the Drau cycle path was very varied in terms of landscape, quite hilly, often away from the Drau and always beautiful 😃
