A short and easy leisurely bike loop starting right from the 50plus Campingpark Fisching: The tour covers about 14 kilometers through the area around Fisching and Weißkirchen. With moderate elevation gain, easy-to-ride sections, and seamless integration with the bike route network, this loop is perfect for campground guests, leisure cyclists, and e-bike riders.

This short, leisurely cycling loop starts right at the 50plus Campingpark Fisching and winds its way for about 14 kilometers through the countryside around Fisching and Weißkirchen. With moderate elevation gain, the tour is technically easy and ideal for a relaxed ride starting right from the campground. The loop combines easy-to-ride sections, short climbs, and quiet stretches through the gently rolling landscape of the Zirbenland region. Along the way, you’ll enjoy beautiful views of meadows, residential areas, and the surrounding hills. Thanks to its manageable length, the tour is particularly well-suited as a short morning ride, a leisurely afternoon outing, or an introductory ride during your camping vacation. Especially convenient: The tour can be easily combined with the Murtal cycling knot system. The signposted junctions make it easy to find your way and allow you to extend or shorten the route to suit your mood, time, and fitness level. This way, the short leisurely ride can easily be turned into a longer exploration tour around Fisching, Weißkirchen, and the Zirbenland region if desired.
