- Description
-
From the starting point in the centre of Flachau, the tour takes us upriver along the Enns cycle path. Past the bathing lake - which invites you to cool refreshment after the tour - we arrive in Flachauwinkl. Here the Ennsradweg ends and we continue to follow the asphalt road along the natural torrent Pleißling. After about 10km we turn right and reach the Marbachtal via slightly ascending forest paths. At the entrance of the idyllic valley we are spoilt for choice as to which of the two unique places to stop for refreshments should be visited. The Prechtlhütte on the front Marbachalm or the Ennslehenhütte on the back Marbachalm, both huts are highly recommended. The return journey takes place on the same route back to Flachau.
