Mountain bike holidays in Mühlbach:
Two wheels – Countless moments of joy
20 bike routes through the mountains around Hochkönig
A bit of dopamine, a bit of serotonin, and a lot of adrenaline: Mountain biking not only makes you break a sweat – it also makes your body release lots of happy hormones. And what better place to enjoy these feelings of happiness than between the impressive rock faces and lush green meadows of the Hochkönig region? There are more than 20 routes waiting for you and your bike around Mühlbach – time for adventures!
Conquering summits on two wheels
Beginners start with the Liftride & Bike-Tour at the Karbachbahn cable car in Mühlbach. This 20-kilometre route combines sporty thrills with leisurely moments on the lift. Seasoned bikers should give the Hochkeil loop a try. From the centre of Mühlbach, the tour takes you high up into the mountains and back down into the valley.
The Königstour as the highlight of your mountain bike holiday
The highlight of every mountain bike holiday on Hochkönig is the Königstour. Four stages lead you across picturesque mountain passes, through fairytale-like forests, and to cosy Alpine huts where you can take a break. And the best part: Your luggage will always be transported to the overnight destination that you are headed for. That’s possible thanks to a special luggage delivery service. Free yourself of unnecessary weight and clunky bags – and indulge in feelings of happiness!
E-bike tours in the Hochkönig region
E-bikes are taking the mountains by storm, and the Hochkönig region has long since responded to this trend: it is the first area in the world to have a network of e-bike charging stations both in the valley and up in the mountains. All standard e-bike systems can be charged at the 20 charging stations – in Mühlbach at the Arthurhaus, at the Café-Konditorei-Bäckerei Bauer or at the Karbachalm.
Dedicated e-MTB trails ensure that you won’t run out of either breath or battery power whilst out and about. One of the most appealing activities, offering magnificent views, is the II Tour, a panoramic route between Maria Alm, Dienten and Mühlbach.
Sport and indulgence can be perfectly combined on one of the three culinary ‘king’s tours’ by e-bike. Carefully selected routes, a bike guide and plenty of delicacies make this activity an unforgettable experience.
Action and thrill on the flow trails
Passionate mountain bikers who are looking for a special thrill will find it on the "Flow One" flow trail in Maria Alm. Three kilometres of forest and meadow trails, 352 metres of elevation loss and lots of riding fun await you. The starting point is at the new Natrunbahn mountain station.
The Hochkönig-Dienten flow trail at Bürglalm, on the other hand, covers 4.2 kilometres and is suitable for the whole family. Numerous obstacles and challenges, such as banked turns or jumps, must be mastered.
The Hochkönig Skill Area, also located at Bürglalm, offers the perfect environment to improve your technique and learn new skills. Bridges, a downhill area, a rock garden, and a pump track are only a few of the highlights.
Bike transport & rental in Mühlbach
In addition to the five summer lifts, which comfortably take you up the mountain or back down into the valley, local taxi companies offer a return service for you and your bike.
If your mountain bike or e-bike needs repair or spare parts, you’ll find sports shops with expert customer support – in Mühlbach.
