Day 1 Arrival in Radstadt
Individual arrival in Radstadt, check-in at the hotel and handover of the travel documents as well as (when booking) your rental bike. Radstadt, affectionately known as the “old town in the mountains”, invites you to take a leisurely walk with its medieval flair and mountain panorama. Example of hotel: Hotel Brüggler.
Day 2 Radstadt – Gröbming 45 km
It starts along the young Enns – lively and clear. Soon the view opens up to the imposing south faces of the Dachstein. You cycle through the Enns Valley via Schladming, past alpine meadows and with a mighty mountain backdrop behind you. The arrival in Gröbming is rewarded with panorama and Styrian cordiality. Example of hotel: Landhaus Amadeus
Day 3 Gröbming – Admont 55 km
It’s a leisurely ride through the valley – the Enns always at your side. Soon the rugged peaks of the Gesäuse National Park rise up on the horizon – like a natural cathedral. A cultural highlight awaits you in Admont: the Benedictine monastery with the largest monastery library in the world. Example of hotel: Hotel Spirodom
Day 4 Admont – St. Gallen 55 km
Today it’s going to be wildly romantic: The Enns squeezes through the spectacular Gesäuse – a 20 km long gorge that will make nature lovers go into raptures. Rocks, forest and river provide a natural spectacle that is second to none. In St. Gallen, the best way to end the day is with a glass of Styrian wine. Example of hotel: Hotel Hensle Side 3 from 8.
Day 5 St. Gallen– Großraming 45 km (incl. bus shuttle to the Mooshöhe
Gallstein Castle greets you farewell. We continue through the Limestone Alps National Park – unspoilt, wooded, wild. Lynx, black stork and maybe even a real nature spirit live here. The ascent to the Mooshöhe is easily overcome by bus shuttle – so there is more power for amazement. Example of hotel: Hotel Kirchenwirt
Day 6 Großraming – Steyr 42 km
Downstream and steeped in history: iron was once transported here on rafts, today you cycle relaxed through this traditional region. In Steyr, the Steyr flows into the Enns – and culture lovers get their money’s worth: historic old town, castle houses, pure industrial culture. Example of hotel: Stadthotel Styria.
Day 7 Steyr – Linz 50 km
The Enns becomes sluggish and wide – almost majestic as it passes the town of Enns, Austria’s oldest city. Romans, Celts and Babenbergers have left their mark here. In the Museum Lauriacum, history becomes tangible before continuing on to the Danube to Linz. Example of hotel: Arcotel Hotel Nike.
Day 8 Departure
Journey home or additional nights After breakfast, you can travel home on your own – or you can extend your stay in Linz. If you prefer it more comfortable, simply book the return transfer to Radstadt by bus or train.
