Salza-Route

During this tour, the diversity of the Ausseerland Salzkammergut region with its mountains and lakes really comes into its own. The route from Bad Mitterndorf via the Salzaalm to Grundlsee is a real treat. From Pichl-Kainisch it is a leisurely return to Bad Mitterndorf via Obersdorf.
Starting from the Hotel Post, we drive through the narrow section next to the Reisinger bakery on the asphalt road along the Salzabach stream for about 5 km to the Kochalmbauer farm. Here the asphalt road ends and we continue on the gravelled forest road. We follow this up through the "Schusterin" and ignore all the turn-offs until we reach the hunting lodge "Albrechthütten" where we immediately reach the "Rechenplatz" (1008 m). Here we turn left over the bridge, climbing steadily up to the Pyrmoos and above the Salzaalm again to the left up to the highest point of the tour (1200 m). At the barrier, we turn left once more and from now on descend to the next ground, the so-called Klaushöfl.
Then we turn left downhill to the Grundlsee.
Once at the lake, we turn right towards Gößl and ride along the lake to the hamlet of Schachen. Here we enjoy the view down to the lake. From here we stay on the lakeside road and continue to the Seeklausbrücke bridge. We turn left approx. 300 m after the Seeklausbrücke and ride on the asphalt road over the Radling to Pichl-Kainisch. Once in the centre of the village, we descend to the level crossing and immediately turn left onto the >R19< in the direction of Bad MItterndorf.
At the Jausenstation Stieger we stay on the >R19< and follow it via the small village of Obersdorf to Bad Mitterndorf.
