The tour

This diverse tour starts at Sport Hauser Kaibling and leads through Ruperting to the Haus-Aich Singletrack. Here, you'll find the Madame Flow Trail, known for its smooth turns and beginner-friendly terrain, making it ideal for riders of all skill levels. From there, the route continues along the Enns Cycle Path towards Pruggern, before the challenging climb to Galsterberg begins.

Following quiet forest paths, you'll reach the idyllic Styrian Bodensee, a perfect spot for a short break. The journey then continues over Peterseberg and through the Gumpental, eventually leading back to the starting point.

Permitted Riding Times:

  • April 1 to August 31: 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM
  • September 1 to October 31: 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM
Note (valid for 2025):
Due to construction traffic on Hauser Kaibling, there may be restrictions during weekdays. On weekends, however, the route is fully accessible and perfect for an enjoyable ride.

New MTB Signage in Progress
The installation of the new MTB signage, which also includes updated loop numbers, is currently underway. These changes are already reflected in the new 2025 tour brochure. However, minor discrepancies may still occur on-site due to the presence of the old (green) signage. We kindly ask for your understanding.

 

Turn-by-turn directions

The route begins at Sport Hauser Kaibling, heading straight towards Ruperting. Upon reaching Ruperting, take a left turn, pass under the main road, and continue towards Weissenbach. Cross the railway tracks and the Enns River here, then turn right after the bridge to reach the parking lot for the Singletrack Haus-Aich. Note that this singletrack is paid (5 €), but is included for free with the Sommercard.

From here, the Madame Flow Trail begins – an easy, flowy trail suitable for all skill levels. At the end of the trail, near the Sonnberg parking lot, turn right towards Aich. Once in Aich, descend to the Enns River and continue along the Enns Cycle Path towards Pruggern.

Next, the tour's challenging section begins – the climb to Galsterberg. This ascent is demanding but rewards riders with stunning panoramic views. Upon reaching the summit, the route passes by the Priklalm and continues along quiet forest paths towards Gössenberg.

From Gössenberg, the trail leads into the picturesque Seewigtal, where you'll reach the Styrian Bodensee. This is the perfect spot for a short break – either cool your legs in the crystal-clear mountain lake or grab a hearty meal at the lakeside inn.

The return route winds over the Petersberg and through the Gumpental, traversing the Gumpenberg towards Oberhausberg. After passing the top station of the Hauser Kaibling 8-seater gondola, it's a long, thrilling descent back to Haus, leading you to the starting point at Sport Hauser Kaibling.

The right bike: mountain bike or gravel bike with studded tyres, racing bikes are not recommended.
