The Finsterberg circuit: a varied tour in a scenically impressive setting
Your bike tour begins at the Schattberg X-Press, from where you ride comfortably through the picturesque village center in a northerly direction. The rest of the route takes you straight up along the Spielbergbach stream to just below the Spielberghaus. As soon as you have passed the Spielberghaus, you ride uphill on some long serpentines through the dense forest. Feel the energy in your legs as, after crossing the ski slope, you gradually approach the highest point at just under 1,700 meters.
You have the choice!
You can either ride down the idyllic forest trail or go on the chilly Wetterkreuz trail. Both trails offer you varied passages and exciting descents that are guaranteed to thrill you. Both trails meet again at the end just before the Reiteralm.
