Climb to Sankt Jakob

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Beautiful, varied route near Sankt Jakob. Rolls very well through relatively new asphalt and is a pleasant change from the otherwise broken surface in the area.

Wiedweg Ascent

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Small increase in Wiedweg. Downhill I recommend to avoid the very nicely paved road, the bike path is well suited for uphill, due to some splinters, dirt and surrounding branches but not for downhill.

Vorwald to Ebene Reichenau Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Flat and beautiful route in the direction of Ebene Reichenau. last flat stretch before it gets steeper. Whether on the Nockalmstrasse, to the Turracher Höhe or in the direction of Hochrindl, it gets steeper!

From here it gets crisp. The great Nockalm Road winds its way over 35 km from Ebene Reichenau to Innerkrems. You pass Schiestlscharte (2024 m) and Eisentalhöhe (2042 m) and a total of 1490 m.

Nockalmstrasse Toll Station

Highlight • Rest Area

The road is toll-free for bicycles, because of the high attraction of the road for our motorized two-wheeler colleagues it is advisable to enter the road as early as possible.

So that was the highlight of the season that I've been looking forward to for a long time. I don't even know where exactly, but somewhere near Gmünd (long before the entrance to the Kremstal) the Garmin then switched to the mountain assistant with the announcement "still 1245 meters in altitude" ... From the north the slopes are actually quite …

Nockalmstrasse – magnificent view in good weather. A great experience.

It was a beautiful ride. And the best part: I met a former work colleague on the last few kilometers. He was also cycling.

The tour was awesome 🔨. I did it, if only just. As people from the low mountain ranges, we are not used to such altitude difference. I've never ridden anything close to those increases. Plus 30 degrees in the shade... but in the end I'm pretty proud to have shot this thing down.

A scenic circular tour through the Nockberge mountains in Carinthia, with (for me) strenuous climbs.

Today it was that time again. After four years, I went on the Nockalmrunde again. One of my all-time favorites. Great as always, and luckily, no Harley-Davidson gathering in Carinthia this time 😂
