  • From the parking lot of the mountain hut, we either follow the signs for the mountain bike route (ATTENTION: the 5 km long, very challenging downhill route built into the natural landscape is only suitable for very experienced mountain bikers with the appropriate equipment!!!) or the asphalt road to Pöllauberg back to the starting point.
