Description

We start tour 261 at the valley station of the Gaisbergbahn and ride from the Ache on MTB route 205 towards Aschau. This flat section is ideal for warming up. As the route progresses, the cycle path joins the main road, which we have to follow for a short distance. Passing the valley station of the Ki-West gondola lift, the path turns off to the right uphill immediately after the Brügglbach. Well signposted and soon on gravel, we ride on route 261 alongside beautiful alpine meadow slopes and through forest towards the Brechhornhaus. Passing the Hagleralmen, after a relaxing flat section, the final hairpins follow and we have made it. The Brechhornhaus is a perfect opportunity to recharge our batteries before we bike back down to the valley on the familiar path.
