Obertauern Resort Village

Highlight • Settlement

Perhaps a little dreary in summer - it is a winter sports resort after all. But all around, eyes sparkle: the mountain panorama and many good trails for mountain bikers are simply amazing. A stage location on the Stoneman circuit.

Tauern Road (B99)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

If you want to get over the pass, you have to go this way. Sometimes not so great because of the cars.

Ascent to Katschberghöhe

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Not really fun. Uphill to steep and annoying traffic. Departure towards Rennweg again to steep and poor surface.
