Road cycling

On this tour, you'll head to the beautifully situated Pillersee Lake in the Pillersee Valley of the same name. While you'll start the tour on a relatively flat route, you'll gain a few more meters of elevation in the second half.

It starts in Zell am See. You'll cycle towards Saalfelden with a view of the Steinernes Meer (Steinern Sea). The route continues along the Saalach River to Lofer, before the moderate climb begins. You'll soon reach Pillersee Lake – time for a (swimming) break.

The climb continues until you cross the Grießen Pass at an altitude of 1,000 meters. You'll be rewarded with a rapid descent back to Saalfelden, before pedaling leisurely back to Lake Zell.

Beautiful tour around the Steinernes Meer. Only at St. Ulrich the navigation was not clear.

The Steinberg Loop is simply amazing. Beautiful scenery and plenty of opportunities to cool off and refill your water bottles.

Nice tour, without any steep climbs, unless you take a detour into the mountains.

There is almost always a stream or small, clean river next to the bike path. A small section is made of gravel, but can still be ridden on a racing bike.

Almost the entire route can be completed without a busy road.
