The reputaton of the Dachstein Round as an exciting event is spreading quickly, and so more enthusiastic bikers are registering for the event every year. Little wonder, as the route takes in magnificent mountain scenery all around "King Dachstein", and the crystal clear lakes of the Salzkamergut. The Dachstein Round is suited to the curious new competitors keen to explore a beautiful region throughout this multi-stage tour and also to the experienced champion cyclist. The "classic" routes are those marked blue and red, and the longer, significantly more challenging routes are marked in black and orange.

DACHSTEIN ROUND IN BLUE – THE ORIGINAL ROUTE

The ideal intoduction to adventurous mountain bike tours. From the Dachstein Salzkammergut the route continues in a clockwise direction around the impressive Dachstein plateau: from the Aussee area via the Viehbergalm into the Enns valley, and then onwards to Ramsau and, finally, via the Salzburgerland back to Lake Hallstatt.

DACHSTEIN ROUND – THE RED ROUTE

is a contrast to the original blue route. It is somewhat more challenging. The red route covers the same terrain as the blue, but in the other direction.The ascents are technically more challenging. On the first day the route takes you from Hallstatt to Gosau where you can enjoy magnificent mountain scenery. We continue then to Ramsau and via a strenuous route back into the beautiful Salzkammergut.

DACHSTEIN ROUND - CHALLENGING BLACK ROUTE

For the keen, experienced biker aiming for great heights. This route assumes high levels of fitness and technique. But no need to worry, the black route is not just for extreme bikers. Part of the course follows the blue route and the "Singletrail-Plus". As such the Dachstein Round is perfect too for couples and groups with different levels of fitness and experience. Despite variations in the different routes, everyone arrives at the same places along the route.
