Loich panoramic route

Please note the winter closure of this and all other MTB routes in the Mostviertel from November 1 to April 14. 

Thank you for your understanding!

From Loich station in Dobersnigg, the route leisurely follows a few hundred meters along the Pielach, then turn right and after the railway crossing again right, along the access road. The sweat-inducing climb leads to the high-altitude farms, where the first views of the surroundings can already be enjoyed. The descent leads into the castle area, turn right at the intersection and follow the access road. After about 1.5 km, the next climb begins to Hof Burgstall. The magnificent view compensates for the strenuous climb. After Hof Burgstall, first turn right onto a forest road and then follow the narrow forest path down into the Schwarzgraben and to the main road. For a short time, the Loichbach accompanies towards the south, then turn right and the next climb begins, initially following the access road Ödgegend, then turn right to the Günther chapel, from where Ötscher appears so close. A forest road goes around the Schnabelstein, one of the most beautiful sections of the route. At the end of the forest road, a steep, narrow, and rocky descent (only for experienced mountain bikers) leads to the access road Klein Holzsteig and after the effort, enjoy the descent down to Loich and back to the station.   

A1, exit St.Pölten South, right towards Traisen and Pielach valleys, turn right at the traffic light towards Obergrafendorf/Kirchberg on the Pielach/Pielach valley, Pielach valley federal road to Dobersnigg, left over the bridge to Loich
