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.
For particularly sporty Moutainbiker we recommend: Park your bike at the end of the forest road and continue on foot to the Almendorf Stornalm (not operated) and to the Kufstein (2,049 m).
