Terrible climb at the beginning and then to Bad Gastein. I recommend the train from Dorf Gastain 😁 cycle path, bad state road with long tunnels

Today we make the most vertical meters on our tour.

There is nothing new to add to last year's tour description (and the Bad Gastein city walk).

June 3, 2024,Alpe Adria | Etappe 02 | St. Veit - Bad Gastein

Unfortunately the weather didn't play along, we wanted to get on as quickly as possible and so we couldn't visit the Liechtenstein Gorge.
Bad Gastein: Access via tunnels bearable, Gastein Valley cycle path beautiful, climb to Bad Gastein very steep but short. Hotels on the steep slope very impressive but dead. Stayed overnight at Hotel Simader - unspectacular, small rooms …

The cycling season is definitely coming to an end 😉🤔😪 We only saw a few cyclists on the otherwise busy Alpe Adria and Tauern cycle path! We as “natives” are also always thrilled by the great panorama 👍🙏🫢🫣

2nd day.@Today we climbed 1130 meters in altitude on a total of 82 km. We had to drive through 2 tunnels, which wasn't so nice, very loud.
We also got really wet twice. Now we are in Spittal in the Kolpinghaus. Nice room, but you have to look hard if you don't want to pay more than 150€ for an …

2nd individual stage of the Alpe Adria cycle path: The path up to Bad Gastein is really very steep, but it's worth it, especially when you're standing on the bridge of the big waterfall 😅 but a visit to the thermal baths can also be a lot of fun 🏊‍ ♂️

Always keeping the snow-covered mountains 🏔️ in view and some steep climbs with up to 17%, especially in the section to Bad Gastein, we went to the train station 🚉 Böcknitz. The path ends there and a train ride through the Tauernschleuse takes you to the other side of the mountain to Mallnitz. There is also the campsite 🏕️ high …
