You start at the village square in Aich and first ride across the Enns towards Weißenbach. There, you reach the Jumper Trail, which offers a varied descent. The trail costs €5 but is free with the Schladming-Dachstein Card.

After the descent, you return across the Enns to Ruperting. Here, the longer climb up to Gumpenberg begins. Via the Gumpental, the route continues uphill towards the Styrian Bodensee.

At the lake, it’s a perfect spot for a break or a quick refresh. Then follow the asphalt road towards Gössenberg and continue on to Galsterberg.

Trip Planner

Always wear a helmet and appropriate clothing.
Ride only on paved and signposted paths.
Watch out for traffic at crossroads and road junctions!
Be considerate and give way.
Avoid blocking the rear wheel and thus help to maintain the paths.
Control your speed downhill!
Protect the environment and don't leave rubbish, etc. in the mountains!

In case of emergency, please dial the following emergency numbers:

No. 140 - Mountain rescue

No. 112 - Euro emergency call

The right bike: mountain bike or gravel bike with studded tyres, racing bikes are not recommended.

Breakdowns can happen - but rarely at the doorstep of one of the numerous service points: a basic kit of tools and accessories therefore never hurts! Spare inner tube and/or repair kit, universal spanner, air pump, brake and shift cable, as well as a screwdriver can never hurt.

Plan breaks: Along the route, many huts and inns invite you to stop for a relaxing break and enjoy regional specialties.
E-mountain bike: With electric support, the tour is also suitable for less experienced bikers. There are several e-bike charging stations along the route. Their locations can be seen on the map and in the elevation profile, making it easy to plan your tour and possible charging stops.
