Details for: Stiftsblick bike route
Brief description
A scenic route for experienced cyclists.
Description
A varied landscape with magnificent panoramic views awaits all leisure cyclists on this challenging route. From St. Peter's Abbey Seitenstetten it goes via St. Peter/Au to Weistrach, gently uphill to Kürnberg (tip: a scenic detour to the Kaiser Elisabeth Watchtower) and further along meadows and forests via Hochstraße, Monument, Ertl, and Bruckbach to St. Michael (tip: a detour to the Hubertus Chapel and the Voralpenblick viewing platform).
Along the Mosthöhenstraße outstanding views extend far over the Danube to the Czech Republic and on the other side to Ötscher, Gesäuse, and the Haller Mauer, compensating for the efforts. Finally, the route continues to Biberbach and back to the starting point at the Benedictine Abbey Seitenstetten.
Note: The bike route is signposted in both directions and can also be ridden the other way round.
