Description

Through the Drau Valley we first reach Greifenburg and then Spittal. A little later you are already cruising along Lake Millstätter See. This can be done either directly along the lake or on the beautiful high road through Obermillstatt and then down to Dellach. From here we now head for the Nockalm Road, which with its 34 kilometres and 52 hairpin bends makes every motorcyclist's heart beat faster. Great panoramic views, inviting snack stations and information stands that reveal a lot of interesting facts about the Nockberge Biosphere Park are recommended for stops along the way.

On the way back to Osttirol, the Malta Hochalmstraße invites you to visit the Kölnbreinsperre. Standing at 1,930 m above sea level, the structure is Austria's highest dam, with a height of 200 metres. Back from the Maltatalabstecher, a short visit to the artist town of Gmünd should be planned. This should definitely include a visit to the Porsche Museum Helmut Pfeifhofer.
