Rettenbachalm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A friendly alpine hut in the idyllic Rettenbach Valley. Thanks to its gravel road, it's also a great destination for a bike ride.

The connection between Blaa-Alm and Rettenbachtal is officially open again 👌

Riding time: 3:15 hours. Regarding the photos: By pure coincidence, a mountain bike time trial was taking place at our starting point at the same time. 1000 meters of elevation gain on the Loser Panoramastrasse...the best in under 28 minutes!!! That wasn't for us! The Blumenthal House was the first prefabricated house built in Berlin in 1890 for the 1893 …

Most beautiful tour so far in the Salzkammergut. Partially overlaps with the Sarstein circuit. Great place to stop for a break at the Blaa Alm. From here it's all downhill and straight with lots of gravel (no asphalt). The ride passes Robert's.

Altausseer See is unfortunately closed to cyclists - no circumnavigation possible

A great tour without major challenges. Mostly easy to drive forest roads with some rest stops.
The Lippenbauernhütte is absolutely cozy and highly recommended!
