Forest section Wudmath - Emmersdorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A beautiful and easily navigable section through the forest. Pleasant even on hot days. In my opinion, it's better to navigate it upstream, i.e., towards Villach.

Old Drau Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

... here the R1 used to run along ...
Today a wonderful singletrack, although a bit overgrown, but is neatly maintained by the Verbundgesellschaft!
No traffic, just great to drive ...

Most of the tour runs along dirt roads in the Velden area passing through towns and villages crossing woods and for me an unknown Austria in the middle of corn fields, in absolute peace, along the Drava, you can see the fashionable Velden at the beginning and at the end of the tour 😉 a beautiful gravelled road 😊🇦🇹❤
