Tauern cycle path

In Krimml you find the largest European waterfall. On a well-designed trail you can admire this natural spectacle. Your bikes will be available at the booked accommodation.

Your tour goes through the "Nationalpark Hohe Tauern" and "Oberpinzgau", where you will constantly see snow-covered mountains with a highness of 3,000 metres.

On this trail you will have a fabulous backdrop with lush green meadows and small villages. In Kaprun you can visit the "Hochgebirgsstauseen" (high-mountain reservoir).

At "Zeller See" (Lake Zeller) you can take a refreshing bath or if you are a very sportive biker, you can still insert an extra round. You will cycle through "Maria Alm" with its famous pilgrimage church.

The lunch break you can enjoy in Saalfelden. Other highlights on your way to Lofer are the Seisenbergklamm and Lamprechtshöhle near Weißbach.

Today will lead you mostly through the Saalachtal. Bad Reichenhall in the ´small German angle´ will enchant you with Bavarian flair. After a short distance you will have reached Salzburg, the city of Mozart. The cultural offer will embrace you.

You should allow yourself enough extra time for a stroll through the city and a visit to Mozart´s birth house.

You will leave Salzburg and its Alps. On this route you are cycling through the foothills of the Alps. The "Tauern" ends in Tittmoning and from here you have to follow the trail along the Lower Inn before you will reach your destination Burghausen. It is a magnificent old town and has the largest castle complex in Central Europe.

Today you cycle along the river Inn up to Braunau. This town is perfect for taking a lunch break.

On your way there are numerous bird colonies. From here you can follow the bike path on the Bavarian or Austrian side. Your destination Obernberg has a well-known marketplace with Baroque buildings.

You will soon reach "Stift Reichersberg" which is worth a visit. On your route along the river Inn, you will cycle through small towns like Schärding. At its Baroque market square, you can take a break. Not far and you will have reached the final destination of this beautiful bike trip: Passau.

The three-river city has much to offer. In the cathedral of Passau, you will see the largest church organ in the world. A river-cruise would certainly be a grand finale of this wonderful bike ride.

In Passau there´s a lot to discover. We would be appreciated to book an extension of your trip.
