A great and somewhat challenging tour with beautiful climbs and fast approaches
Beautiful tour from the Hotel Felsenhof. Beautiful hut. With an electric bike, it's a slightly strenuous but doable route.
The second day was pretty tough. Initially, the path led along the cycle path on Wagrainer Straße, before heading straight up the ascent in Moos. First moderately on the asphalt road, then later on partly loose ground with sections + 20%. At the top it was only 6 degrees. The sun didn't come out until after the stop, so it got noticeably warmer right away. The improving weather persuaded me to make a detour to the summit cross. Then the looong descent with a few small counter climbs. Arrived back in Flachau, cleaned the bike and picked up a finisher beer. After the shower, the afternoon program was still on the list. Conclusion: great round, unfortunately I didn't see that much due to the weather. Repeat: absolutely!
Sooo....saddled up in the morning and cycled the beautiful Hochgründeck circuit. In fantastic weather and old school but new school 😁 I cycled up there with a 26 inch hardtail + 9-speed gears👍. What can I say, chain on the right and actually overtook 29ers and e-bikes that were pushing and panting. It's still okay 😉. It doesn't always have to be the premium carbon 12-speed di2I'll put my feet up and let me navigate via the app over the race planer. Fun is always what you make of it. Just do it. At least that's what we think, alongside the Frauenalm circuit, one of the most beautiful tours in the Flaucher area. Have fun riding, enjoy sports and......... chain on the right. Yes, the last climb is a "board" up to the Heinrich Kienle Haus, but it's worth it for the view.
Unfortunately, I had to shorten the planned tour. Wasn't fit enough for the demanding track today. However, we had the best weather, a good mood and brought great photos with us...📸
Old school is the new new school, true to the motto we grabbed our 26 inch hardtails and did the Hochgrüneck circuit from Reitdorf. Sheeee woa's. Fantastic weather, plenty of sun and a good mood. Slowly rolling in until Eben. And from there the long one begins Climb to the Heinrich Kiener House, the highest point of the tour. 16 km a constant uphill with a slight downhill in between and then uphill again. You drive through dense coniferous forest on really great forest paths with always fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. Wonderful. And when you think you've made it, there's the final final climb to the Heinrich Kiener Haus, which almost takes the sausage off your plate 😁. 300 steep Wad'lbeisser meters in altitude 😉. To be honest, you're happy when you've reached your destination. The effort is worth it in every case Fall. Return via Wagrain and Höch Castle. We think it's a great round.
🎬 the 2️⃣. in 🇦🇹 and I don't even know when I was sooooo relaxed the last time I went on a tour at the 🧱👨🏻, because today there were only 5️⃣5️⃣ km + 1️⃣8️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ Hm on the 🕰, to get the much quoted and Komoot - Name the community's popular key data ➡️ Greetings to Knusperkopp Albi go out ✌🏻 and so I lay in the 🛏 almost until 🕘 o'clock and then slumped very comfortably in my 🩴 for breakfast, just so that I still managed to put on a 🩳 ... although the question of “why” remains, because I live alone in the entire pension and can really dance the puppets here and let them out ... 😂 Price question ➡️ what do you do after a hearty breakfast? well well… do you know? RIGHT ➡️ you first lie back in the 🛏 and rest and exchange ideas with another 🧱👨🏻 legend ... well who could I mean ?! it is THE woman among women ... she was the 1️⃣ in the last. Woman who has ridden all 5️⃣ MTB - 🧱👨🏻 in 🥇 !! 💪🏻 for this she received, of course, quite rightly, great recognition and that is how the contact came about, which has not broken off to this day… 😊 on the contrary, here and there there is an exchange about the activities on the 🚲 or 🥾 and maybe 👀 we will meet next week, yes in 🇮🇹, because she is also taking an active short vacation there for a few days ... 😊 but since I was in the 🛏 at some point, I started my tour around half past 1:30 ... and as always it started from the start 🌶 with a few meters of altitude ... directly to my 1️⃣ of 2️⃣ checkpoints today ... the "saddle maker" on 1️⃣2️⃣8️⃣3️⃣m called, the path was still on good asphalt at the beginning, the surface changed to loose gravel during the climb ... it’s not so outstanding now, but the 🦵🏻🦵🏻 were fresh and so it was relatively relaxed to the checkpoint !! I didn't stay long here, briefly enjoyed the view and then on ... HOTZ… ⚡️… what is that ?? really now?? something like that happened to me when a light drizzle🌧 set in… I had eaten up nicely in the last few days… oh what do I say, WEEKS, when I look at the growth in my stomach and you don't need a 🔎… 😅 for that I crossed the town of Flachau and was reassured that the ☁️☁️ had probably made a mistake in the day, place or ⏱ ... Shortly after Flachau there were still remnants of the heavy thunderstorm from Monday evening to 👀 ... some places were cleaned up properly and the paths were cleared of mud and branches ... also the 🚲weg parallel to the 🛣 had gotten something here and there ... For me it was then again away from the 🛣 and up to the last checkpoint of the 🧱👨🏻 Taurista ... just under 1️⃣2️⃣ km at 1️⃣8️⃣2️⃣7️⃣m up to the "Hochgründeck" and actually even a few meters higher, because I drove a little further to the summit❌ ... and who thought that today there would be no dismounting and that the journey should be a kind of children's birthday for Dani ... should be wrong at this point ... 😅 in fact there was a disgusting root passage that couldn't have been more beautiful in 🇧🇪 SCHUB 😅 and the further ascent was partly quite steep and it was called from the 2️⃣. Gear, proper cranking and weight in front of / in the handlebars ... But the effort 🥵 should be rewarded with a cream👀… all around… 3️⃣6️⃣0️⃣ degrees… a mix of ☀️ + ☁️… people who have never been to the ⛰, this is exactly what it is worth thinking about… just unbelievably beautiful! ! 😍🤩 attached a little 📽 ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLMhEqPHJNs (Thanks to Knusperkopp Albi for the well-functioning cooperation 👍🏻) As a reward, there was not only a 1️⃣A view for me, but also a good culinary delivery ... in professional circles this is called ➡️ plum pastry I asked twice and did not understand it ... 🤷🏻♂️😅 I also absolutely have a mystery why you use terms down here that you can hardly pronounce and understand neither acoustically nor in terms of content ... 😅 but Tamara was so nice and explained it to me, somehow toast filled with a batter and plum jam, it was soooo delicious, the climb would have been worth it for that alone! 😊 Well fed, I went the last 2.5 miles back to the hotel, with most of it going down and so I reached my pension pretty quickly and lo and behold ... I was no longer alone, there was a out 🇳🇱 in front of it ... Häääää? ! thought they always make the campsites unsafe ?? 🤷🏻♂️😅 be that as it may be ➡️ 🧱👨🏻🎬7️⃣✅ let's see what the weather and your own body will say tomorrow ... active regeneration is the magic word! 😉 otherwise have a nice evening, have fun tomorrow at work, I will think of you !! 😅 Greetings from 🇦🇹 sends Dani ✌🏻
Round trip from Eben im Pongau. Forest roads lead through beautiful forests to the summit cross of Hochgrindeck. From the Hochgrindeck mountain restaurant, the final few meters are on foot to the summit, with its magnificent panoramic views.
