Hameau route

Before every outing, check the functionality of brakes, tires, and suspension fork/shocks. Always ride with hazard awareness and controlled speed and adjust route choice to the riding skills of the group and the surface. The Fair Play rules must always be observed. Single/shared trails and built routes in trail parks and trail centers often feature stones, roots, steep sections, steps, and steep turns that require specific riding skills. In case of doubt, simply dismount and push the bike.

A safe and functional mountain bike is a prerequisite for all routes. Helmet and gloves protect against falls and can be supplemented by knee and elbow pads on single/shared trails. A modern mountain bike with disc brakes and sufficient tire tread is recommended. For single and shared trails from the red difficulty level, a full-suspension bike with modern geometry is recommended. Tools, tire levers, pump, and spare tube help in case of a breakdown. Sufficient supplies (drinks and food) should also be carried, as well as a mobile phone and wind/rain jacket.

From Schwarzenbergallee, we follow the MTB signs uphill to Hameau. From there, it goes over both Roan Trails towards Hermanskogel and continues left downhill along Schützengraben. At the bottom, we turn left onto L116, after 800 m turn left again uphill along Dombachgraben and continue to Sofienalpe. From there, we go downhill along Kasgraben to Mauerbachstr. and turn left twice (steep uphill) to reach Rieglerhütte via Jägerwaldsiedlung. Here we turn right onto a path, go straight ahead, and behind Hanslteich back to the start.
