Description

The difficult mountainbike-route "Lucknerhütte" starts at Alpengasthof Lucknerhaus. It leads after about 200 m on the right hand side along the Ködnitzbach (river) with many places to rest and to listen to the background noise of the river. Take the next 1,5 km wide graveled path in a moderate ascent to the bridge and then further on along a very narrow path steep uphill. Please be very careful along this section! After another 2,5 km you're at the Lucknerhütte. Please take care on the way back, too, and never forget to pay attantion to other hikers or bikers!
