Suspension bridge over the Koppentraun

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

A nice "Gravel" alternative to the more or less parallel Koppenpass. You cycle directly along the banks of the Koppentraun, which you cross here on a beautiful suspension bridge.

October 4, 2023,Ischl, Hallstatt

Nice, promising round. The route from the Blaa Alm to the Rettenbachalm is officially closed due to woodwork and the alleged risk of falling rocks, but is passable without any problems.

On today's last day of vacation, there should be another big bike tour, around 60 KM and with some altitude meters...and what kind of altitude meters ⛰️🫣

I start my tour near Bad Ischl at the Jodschwefelbad train station. There is a small free parking lot here, which is used by various cyclists.

Today, after a great breakfast, we went via Bad Ischl and Bad Goisern to Lake Hallstadt, then on to Lake Grundlsee and Lake Altausseer. We booked a holiday home for the next night. It was the cheapest offer on Booking 😀 Something different.
