Description
The Laurenzi route offers a varied combination of scenic and cultural highlights in the Vienna Woods. The ascent to Hochstraß is particularly impressive and is rewarded with beautiful views of the surrounding hilly landscape. Another highlight is the route over the Buchberg, where the Buchbergwarte offers a wide panoramic view over the foothills of the Alps and the Vienna Basin. The historical sites along the route, including Stein Monastery and Burgstall, which offer insights into the history of the region, are well worth a cultural visit. The varied mix of forest, meadow and asphalt paths ensures a varied riding experience and makes the route particularly attractive for ambitious mountain bikers.
- safety instructions Before each ride, check the functionality of brakes, tires, and suspension fork/shock absorber. Always ride with hazard awareness and controlled speed and adapt the route choice to the riding skills of the group and the terrain. The Fair Play rules must always be observed. Single/shared trails as well as built trails in trail parks and trail centers increasingly feature stones, roots, steep sections, steps, and hairpin turns that require specific riding skills. When in doubt, simply dismount and push the bike.
- Equipment A safe and functional mountain bike is a prerequisite for all routes. Helmet and gloves protect in case of falls and can be supplemented by knee and elbow protectors 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 provisions (drinks and food) should also be carried along with a mobile phone and wind/rain jacket.
- Route description The route starts at the sports center in Neulengbach and follows the Laabental cycle path to Außerfurth near Altlengbach. After passing through the town, it goes sweat-inducing and demanding uphill over Kogl and Lengbachl to Hochstraß. Alternating between forest and meadow, it then continues steadily downhill to Gasthaus Mayer, where we cross the B44 and cycle via Kaiserspitz, Kloster Stein, Burgstall, and Johannesberg to the Buchberg with its watchtower. Finally, we comfortably roll back to the start.Surface: Asphalt 81%, gravel 14%, forest/meadow 5%
