Speedy, challenging routes get your adrenaline flowing during road cycling. But don’t forget to take a break from time to time to savour the impressive views of the Enns valley! The mountain pass roads of the Schladming-Dachstein region are simply perfect for exploring the fascinating mountain world of the green heart of Austria with your road bike.
Expect splendid views and steep ascents on three of the region’s most beautiful mountain roads. For instance, the 10.2-kilometre-long Stoderzinken panoramic road rewards you with marvellous vistas of the High Tauern and Lower Tauern mountains as well as of the Gesäuse region and Grossglockner mountain.
While cycling along the Dachstein road, you can marvel at the mountain of the same name. Covering an altitude difference of 1,150 metres, you can cycle up to the top of Styria’s highest mountain.
Road cycling enthusiasts will also love the scenic road up to Sölk Pass at 1,788 metres above sea level, which is dotted with charming mountain huts for relaxed breaks.
Good to know: If you’re looking for a more leisurely tour, why not cycle along the Enns river? The Enns cycle path offers you amazing views of the Dachstein, Stoderzinken, Grimming and Schladming Tauern mountains and leads you past burbling streams, charming villages and historic towns.
