This stage of the Tauern Cycle Path leads through a gorge, which is why it is particularly interesting in terms of landscape.

You can drive all the way around the Saalachsee. On one side there is asphalt, on the other gravel. But it's all easy to drive.

July 23, 2025,Tauernradweg Runde von Bad Reichenhall-Kirchberg-Ortsteil Lofer
Today I did a fantastic tour, both in terms of the route and the physical aspect. With several climbs up to 18% and corresponding descents, it was quite challenging 😥 So my better half was pretty much at her limit. But the view was magnificent. So if you have strong calves, a full battery, and good brakes, I can absolutely …

I'm visiting my youngest @Vinikum in Bad Reichenhall. We had agreed to do one of his favorite tours together. We set off this morning at 9:00, meeting point Luitpoldbrücke.

We were a little worried about the weather, it was 17° in the morning and cloudy. The weather held up, it stayed dry and around midday we had 26°, depending on …

On Sunday I took the same route as the day before from Bad Reichenhall to the beautiful Hintersee 🤩.

From there it was completely new territory for me and I followed the Hirschbichlstraße through the Berchtesgaden National Park.
On the way I stopped off at the Klausbachtal suspension bridge, enjoyed the view of the Ramsau Dolomites ⛰️ and a little …

Beaver dam at Lake Saalach, a dreamy day, Buchteln at the Litzlalm, over Weißbach, past the many cyclists waiting for the shuttle bus, through the Loferer Au, to the slide at the Kniepass, and back via Haiderhof 😍

Very nice tour along the Tauernradweg, with a small pass over Hirschbichel

From Unterjettenberg along the Schwarzbach to the Schwarzbachalmen, then via Wachterlhütte, Taubensee, Hintersee to the Engertalm and Hirschbichl, highest point 1183m. From here a wonderful descent to Weißbach, along the Saalach to St.Martin, Lofer, Unken, Niederland, Haiderhof and back to Unterjettenberg. A wonderful bike ride in the most wonderful spring-summer weather with tough climbs and rapid descents in a fantastic …

We did this route 12 years ago, but we had forgotten HOW steep it is to the Hirschbichl! Between 15 and 30%, so I had to push the bike! Back then there were hardly any e-bikes whizzing past you!!!

But the route, the Hintersee, the awesome descent to Schneizlreuth, and along the Saalach of course, are beautiful.
