Fantastic place for a break after a tiring short sting. Pure tranquility, uncultivated or not yet open alp with wonderful view and fountain to refuel water.

May 18, 2024,Rund um die Kanisfluh

Had great conditions today.
Not too warm and not too cold
Unfortunately there were a lot of hikers going downhill.

Very nice long climb, beautiful panorama and constant variety between mountains, gravel, rivers and lots of nature

I've already saved the route 3 times. Now I've finally ridden it.

The well-known circuit around the Kanisfluh to the left. Has the advantage that you go up the miserably steep gravel passages and not down.

August 13, 2023,MTB-Tour Mellau - rund um die Kanisfluh

We started the round at the valley station of the Mellau cable car. From there, a great path leads along the river to Au. In the direction of Damüls, it's a 2km climb up the mountain road. The main ascent is driven up on a tarred supply road. With us, unfortunately, with quite a lot of cars. At the latest …

August 6, 2022,Bregenzerwald: Kanisfluh-Runde

Bregenzerwald, from Au via Mellau around the Kanisfluh. Beautiful, strenuous tour. Unfortunately, dense clouds, fog and no view of the certainly impressive mountain panorama at the top. I haven't had shivering on the bike for a long time 😅.
Descent over gravel and scree roads, concentration and the highest level of discipline required so that the bike doesn't slip. Then …

September 20, 2025,2025.09.20 Rund um die Kanisfluh – Toller Ausblick ins Tal Runde von Hinterbündt

Herbert had chosen this beautiful tour a few years ago. Now, in the best September weather, we finally set out and rode it.
Technically, the tour is easy, with only occasional steep climbs and descents. However, a mountain bike is definitely recommended, as the path behind Alpe Wurzach, for example, is a bit rough, with some sharp rocks. Between the …

June 4, 2024,Rund um die Kanisfluh

Yeay, finally some sun! The classic in the Bregenzerwald and ABSOLUTELY worth driving in this direction. Not the other way around as is widely recommended. Head out the beautiful Mellental valley and then down the boring tarmac road from the Gasthaus Edelweiss.

May 22, 2023,Rund um die Kanisfluh🌤️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🤩🤩

After the weather reports agreed on one point - in the morning ☀️ then ⛈️ - we set off right after breakfast. If we're ever in this beautiful area, the Kanisfluumrundung is a MUST 🤩🤩🤩.
The climb was tough 🥵, strength, condition and battery were required! The reward was a wonderful view! The descent was excellent 😊 and there were …
