Oberndorf in Tirol
favorite_borderfavoriteUp to the Harschbichl
Without major detours we head from Oberndorf in a southerly direction and then with an arc in an easterly direction up towards the legendary Kitzbüheler Horn. Steep and on many serpentines the road winds upwards. About 7km uphill, but we’re going up for a good reason!
A beautiful forest road with smooth turns and a few serpentines brings us down to the middle station of the Harschbichlbahn. Here we ride along the reservoir and come to the beginning of the Harschbichl Trail.
Harschbichl Trail or forest road
A red trail that invites with a beautiful gate made of wood for an extra portion of fun! 145 turns with north-shore elements and a few bridges, much in the forest but also with great views are ahead of us! A few roots, but also a few steep passages are in it, but an experienced mountain biker will get down here well and with a big grin!
You would rather skip the trail? To the right you can instead descend via the forest road.
At the bottom we arrive in St. Johan in Tirol.
Over St. Johann to the Kalksteinalmen
We follow the cycle path out of St. Johann in Tirol in a northerly direction. Shortly before Kirchdorf in Tirol we turn east. A steep asphalt road winds out of the valley and we quickly gain altitude. Soon we turn left. Behind a farm the asphalt ends and we continue on gravel. We have to overcome a gate with a bike ramp and then we continue uphill with many turns through the forest. We keep going, past the junction where the KAT Bike E-Njoy turns left to loop around the hike-a-bike.
Hike-A-Bike over to Winterstelleralm
Soon we have reached the highest point and can briefly recover a bit on a piece of downhill. At a private alpine hut it is now time for the start of our Hike-A-Bike. An alpine meadow with a single trail in it gives us a gentle introduction to this challenging section. Soon it gets a bit rougher with stones and roots in the high forest, which make our way a bit more difficult. Now the first places where we have to carry the bike are coming. Surefootedness is definitely required here.
Now, in wide switchbacks, the road winds downhill, framed by a unique mountain panorama. We don't go downhill for long, then we arrive at the Winterstalleralm. The first serviced alpine hut since we left St. Johann.
Destination Fieberbrunn
We follow the forest road all the way down where we reach an asphalt road. To the right is a bike path. This leads to Fieberbrunn.
On a beautiful bike path we cycle ever so slightly downhill to Fieberbrunn. Many hotels and restaurants are waiting for you.
