Culturally, you start in Graz, Europe's Capital of Culture 2003 and City of Design. Whether at the beginning or at the end of the tour - a stroll through the old town is a must. Along the rivers Mur and Sulm you then drive deep into the Schilcherland. Visits to the pumpkin seed oil mills and tastings are encouraged! Taste Schilcher wine and the delicious white wines of the South Styrian Wine Road. Here the tour continues to the Schloss Seggau and Leibnitz. The Mur is then your faithful companion back to Graz, where a farewell drink in the "Bermuda Triangle" brings this unforgettable cycling holiday to a close.
