Directions
On this cycle tour, you cycle around Passail from place of power to place of power. These include wayside crosses and wayside shrines, which were erected in gratitude for averted misfortune, but also served as signposts for travelers. In addition, chapels were usually built at places of power, as these places are said to emanate a special energy. A good example of this is the Lindenbergkirche St. Anna, which is located just outside Passail on a hill with a beautiful view. Healing springs were also the reason for building a chapel, such as at Maria Kleinheilbrunn
or Ulrichsbrunn, whose water is said to have special healing powers for eye complaints. An abundance of these so-called "places of power" connect this cycle tour, which leads around Passail. Lots of beautiful views and nice rest stops are also included in the route, which is ridden exclusively on asphalt .
The tour starts in the center of Passail and leads in a wide arc via Hohenau to Plenzengreith, almost as far as Semriach. From there, the tour leads back to Passail, where we return to our starting point.
Due to the altitude difference, an e-bike is recommended for this tour, but a mountain bike is not required.
