Directions
Our longest and most strenuous cycle tour leads right into the heart of the beef region Almenland - an "ox tour" in every respect! In summer, 3,500 cattle, mainly oxen, are herded around the Teichalm and Sommeralm, providing first-class ALMO beef and helping the farmers to keep the mountain pastures open. Animal encounters are therefore guaranteed, whether on the mountain pasture or on your plate in the restaurant of your choice!
If you tackle one ascent after another, you deserve a break. And there are plenty of opportunities to do so along the way: a variety of excursion destinations await visitors, such as the Teichalmsee lake with its wooden oxen, the Pöllabauer herb garden, the Stoanihaus or the forest park. If you have a little more time, you can also make a detour to the Brandlucken, Heilbrunn or the pilgrimage church of St. Erhard - but then guaranteed ox-free!
