- Description
-
Start at Flachau Tourism, then we meander along the Enns Cycle Path to the entrance of Flachau. Before the roundabout, we turn left and from there we continue on the cycle path in the direction of Wagrain. At the Moardörfl we leave the path and ride to the valley station of the "Rote 8er Gondelbahn". From now on it's uphill to the middle station. At the top we pass the impressive lift-pond and continue to the middle station of the Flying Mozart. From here it's a rapid descent to the valley station in the direction of Wagrain, where we turn right in the centre and right again at Weberlandln.
(Alternatively, you can stay true to the route and cycle back to Flachau along the cycle path!)
From now on we cycle over sunny meadow slopes moderately uphill towards the Edelweissalm (refreshment stop), where we pass the lift-pond again and start the descent towards Moardörfl. Via the cycle path we return to the starting point in Flachau.
