Description:
This stage does not include single trails or passages for pushing the bikes.

Next to the beautiful nature the following attractions and highlights may contribute making this tour an unforgetable experience:



  • Mondsee west shore and Gaisberg with panoramic view over the Mondsee with Schafberg, Drachenwand and Schober.

  • Wildmoos nature reserve in the direction of Saurüssel. Here you may already have the odd encounter with forest residents.

  • Lonely hamlets between Vöcklatal and Jausenplatz on Kogler Berg.

  • Irrsee with a number of traditional cider taverns and the ruins of Wildenegg Castle along the way.

  • Panoramic views over Irrsee, Mondsee and as far as Salzburg with Untersberg and Stauffen.

  • Thalgauberg downhill to Thalgau further to the Rauchhaus and the Hundsmarktmühle with a stopover to the ruins of Wartenfels.

  • Sunset on the east shore of the Fuschlsee



Directions:
From the centre we follow the route description of stage BergeSeen 1 towards the west shore of lake Mondsee. We follow the cycle path in the direction of Thalgau before leaving into the uphill to the right on Gaisbergstraße. Now we have the panoramic view over the Mondsee with the surrounding mountains on the right hand until we turn left "Am Gaisberg".

We cross under the motorway, leave the Erlachmühle snack station on the right and drive downhill following the signs towards the high moor. Here high above the Mondsee we enjoy the wonderful panorama once again before we cross the Vöckla at the Wildmoos nature reserve and dive right into the forest.


 


The route is well signposted, a must with the many branches, otherwise it would be difficult to find the right way. Below the Saurüssel (956 m) the path leads over the railway station (817 m) into the Vöcklatal. We cross the Vöcklatal Bezirksstraße to the right and leave it after crossing the Vöckla up to the left towards Jagdhub. 


The asphalt road goes only a few km through a few hamlets towards Koglerberg. There is absolute silence here. Only the screeching of the birds of prey, the roebuck on the path which looks up in amazement and then slowly trots away disturb the silence. 


 


On the right side of the path, before it goes downwards again towards Irrsee, an old barn with a weathered bench inviting to eat the snacks you brought with you and the view far into the country towards the Innviertel and the Sommerholz church on the opposite mountain which we will soon pass by.


Before we pass under the B154 to Oberhofen am Irrsee. Now the land of cider taverns and snack stations begins.


 


It will be difficult not to stop, as we still have many things to experience on the way to Fuschlsee. 
Alternatively, we could now turn to the west bank of the Irrsee to jump into the lake or enjoy a fresh fish depending on the season. If not, continue along the path towards Sommerholz before the forest of Kolomannsberg devours us and we have the opportunity to visit the ruins of Wildenegg Castle on the left. The path only leads steadily uphill and always offers wonderful panoramic views in the direction of Irrsee and Mondsee before we come out of the forest at the highest point of the day at 940 m and initiate a change of direction to the left towards Salzburg. 


 


Coming out of the forest, the Schober lies directly in front of us and we see the local mountains of the city of Salzburg: The Gaisberg with Nockstein and the Untersberg with the Stauffen.
Now it goes rapidly downhill over the Thalgauberg towards Thalgau.  We underpass the motorway and cross the Mondseerstraße to the left and shortly afterwards turn right towards Fuschler Ache to follow the cycle path towards Thalgau. The further way leads us upstream through Thalgau always following the Salzkammergutradweg until we turn left in Unterdorf, cross the Brunnbach and follow the signs to Fuschl. 
After several turn-offs it goes uphill again, on asphalt but with very little traffic on the Riedlstraße until the Rauchhaus appears on the right hand side, which must be visited.


 


The view now reaches far into the country again and we see the highest point on the other side of the valley where we came out of the forest not too long ago. The path continues to the crossroads Kesselstraße where we turn down right and after a few bends turn left towards Seestraße. 
Now it goes through the moor at the western end of the Fuschlsee and after a few minutes there is a small snack station on the left side of the path before the last ascent of the day towards Thalgauegg.  


 


We reach the Fuschler Straße L227 turn right and follow it to Fuschl to cool down at the lake or enjoy our dinner in the sunset. 


 


For those who still have enough batteries in their legs and on the bike, there is the possibility to turn left at Thalgauegg towards the ruins of Wartenfels Castle, where you can enjoy the view and then descend to the finish of the first stage of the day.


 


 



Tip:
Midday rest on the west shore of the Irrsee and sunset feeling like in the Caribbean directly at the destination, the east shore of the Fuschlsee.

Safety guidelines:
For a successful, accident free and exciting day you may have to plan your tour well, tips you will find  here.

Equipment:
Please note that any MTB tours can always be done only with proper equipment. 

 


Here our recommendation for tour preparation and equipment.



Additional information:
As new figures on the playing field of mountain and recreational sportsmen, we E-MTB riders have a special responsibility to behave appropriately.

In Graubünden bikers and hikers share the paths. A project that should set a precedent. But this can only be done with mutual respect. Black sheeps throw us back years.


With common rules of play, we ensure that the forest will continue to provide a unique recreational and living space as well as jobs for everyone in the future.

Vis-à-vis users

1. The tours presented for hiking, walking, biking and road biking, mountain biking, motorbiking, horseback riding, climbing, cross-country skiing, and going on skiing and snowshoe tours etc. are to be considered non-paid tour recommendations and only serve as non-binding information. We have no intention of concluding a contract with the users of this website. The utilisation of the data does not lead to the establishment of a contract with us.

 

The data may only be used for private use; any commercial use is prohibited. In particular, it is not permissible to offer the data on commercially run websites, file-sharing platforms etc. or to use it to develop commercial products. Downloading data does not imply that users are granted rights to the data concerned.

 

The tour recommendations posted were created with utmost care; nevertheless, we assume no liability for the correctness and completeness of the information.

 

We point out that neither the tour recommendations included on this website nor the associated data and information were posted by us, but rather by third parties (Art. 16 Austrian E-Commerce Act). We have no influence on whether the details provided (e.g. distance, level of difficulty, change in altitude, description etc.) are authentic, correct and complete. We do not review these third-party contents. For this reason, we assume no liability for the authenticity, correctness and completeness of the information.

 

Construction-related measures or other influences (e.g. landslides and similar occurrences) can lead to temporary or permanent changes in a route (e.g. loss of a bridge and similar occurrences). Such occurrences can lead to part of the route or the entire route becoming impassable.

 

The use of the data as well as undertaking (riding, walking, taking etc.) the recommended tours or using the network of paths occurs at users’ own risk and on their authority. In particular, users themselves are responsible for the choice of route, outdoor orientation, adherence to traffic rules, supplies and equipment for tours listed in Point 1 (e.g. bicycle etc.), wearing a helmet, estimating their own fitness, recognising dangers and maintaining an appropriate velocity. We exclude ourselves from any liability whatsoever for damages, in particular accidents, that occur whilst taking part in the recommended tours.

 

2.Some of the tours lead over roads with normal traffic conditions. Please observe that there is an increased risk which can be avoided by means of appropriate attention and proper estimation and implementation of one’s own abilities. For this reason, please travel a route that is unfamiliar to you slowly and with special care. Pay constant attention to potential dangers and always observe traffic. Do not leave the routes featured in descriptions.

 

The potential use of private roads, in particular forestry roads and agricultural transport roads, can be subject to legal restrictions, which must be observed and adhered to.

 

The normal traffic rules apply. Each user (e.g. biker, motorbiker) is responsible for adhering to these rules and maintaining his/her bike/vehicle and its equipment (lights, brakes etc.) in good working order. Each user is also responsible for ensuring that he/she rides at a velocity that is appropriate for the conditions and his/her skill level and for maintaining sufficient distance to the rider in front. We explicitly recommend adjusting velocity to correspond to the respective field of vision, wearing a helmet, using reflective clothing (or similar) and employing bicycle lights in line with regulations.

 

3.Each tour requires good physical fitness as well as detailed planning. We explicitly recommend only taking the tours in the case of optimal healthiness.

 

We recommend that you conclude an accident and liability insurance policy. Use an onboard computer that displays the respective kilometres travelled per day and is calibrated for the front wheel.

 

4.Special for mountain bikers – Fair-play rules:

 

Mountain biking is one of the most wonderful outdoor leisure-time activities. Whilst biking or on a mountain biking tour, mountains and lakes, meadows and cabins are re-discovered in new ways. A couple of rules for fair play in the forest help to avoid conflicts whilst mountain biking.

 

a.Pedestrians have the right of way: We are accommodating and friendly to pedestrians and hikers. Upon encountering these fellow travellers, we alert them by using the bicycle bell and slowly overtake them. We avoid paths with heavy pedestrian traffic altogether. Take nature into account: We do not leave refuse behind.

b.The braking distance should be half of the total distance visible: We ride at a controlled pace, are ready to brake and maintain a braking distance half as long as the total distance visible, especially in curves, because we always have to count on obstacles on the path. Damage to the path, stones, branches, wood piles, grazing livestock, cattle grids, barriers, tractor-type forestry machines and authorised vehicles pose dangers that we need to be ready for.

c.Don’t drink and drive!: Do not drink alcohol when mountain biking. Take care at stop-off points (dealing with bike racks, dirty shoes or clothing).

It is obligatory to provide first aid!

d.Marked routes, closed paths and blockades: Keep to the marked routes, observe the blockades and accept that these roads are primarily for agricultural and forestry use!

Blockades can often not be avoided and are in your own interest. Biking beyond the intended path and outside of opening times is punishable and turns us into illegal bikers.

e.We are guests in the forest and behave accordingly, including vis-à-vis forestry and hunting staff. Whilst mountain biking, mobile telephones and music players are forbidden! Biking requires your full attention.

f.Avoid unnecessary noise. Out of consideration to the animals living in the wild, we only bike during full daylight. As a principle, we always wear our helmet (even when riding uphill)! Don’t forget emergency supplies: We always have a repair set and bandages along.

g.Don’t overestimate your skills: We should not overdo it when it comes to biking technique and physical fitness. Take the level of difficulty posed by the route into consideration and make a precise estimate of your experience and skills as a biker (braking, bell, lights)!

h.Close gates: We approach grazing livestock at a walking pace and close every gate behind us. We should avoid causing escape and panic reactions in the animals. Nothing stands in the way of the fun and athletic challenge in the mountains and forests!

i.Traffic rules: The general traffic rules (StVO) apply for all the mountain biking routes and we adhere to them. Our bike therefore needs to be in perfect technical condition and equipped in line with the traffic rules, including brakes, a bell and lights. We inspect and service our mountain bikes regularly anyway.

Moreover, we have no influence on the design or contents of the websites to which hyperlinks on www.salzkammergut.at lead or from which hyperlinks lead to www.salzkammergut.at.
