Saalach River and Waterfalls

Highlight • River

The bike path on the Saalach is just fantastic. On the one hand always the great view to the Predigtstuhl and on the other side of the Zwiesel and Hochstaufen

Tauern Cycle Path along the Saalach

Highlight • Cycleway

Since this section mostly runs directly along the Saalach River, there's no chance of getting bored. It's very interesting and varied.

Saalach River

Highlight • River

The Saalach is quite wild here, which is why rafting tours are also offered here.

Saalach Riverside Trail

Highlight • Trail

It's mostly hard gravel, but it's still easy to drive. Cars, yes, but rarely.

The state border should be approached with some caution.

September 8, 2024,🚵‍♀️Reiter Alpe🏔Aschauer Klause über Unken (AT)

Today, we're just going to do the usual tour on our doorstep the other way round. It should still work out given the weather forecast :-)
From Reichenhall-Karlstein past the Predigtstuhlbahn along the banks of the Saalachsee to Fronau and from here up to the Haiderhof. Then we're on to Unken on Austrian soil. A break at the Kirchenwirt and …

August 20, 2023,🚵‍♂️Aschauer Klamm und Reiter Alpe⛰️ über Unken

End of the weekend .... my "house round" the other way around again (about 3 hours). From Reichenhall-Luitpoldbrücke along the Saalach to Unterjettenberg and then to the Haiderhof to Unken and Reith. From Reith you go up the mountain to the Reiteralpe and Aschauer Klamm. A lot of shade was good in the muggy weather. Departure via the Bundeswehr WTD …

If it is stormy in autumn, as announced for Berchtesgaden, you stay on the other side of the mountain and drive towards Austria. One of my favorite rounds in autumn🍂🍁🍁🍂
From Reichenhall-Karlstein along the Saalachsee to Unterjettenberg and then the driveway over the WTD to the Aschauer Klamm along the Reiteralpe. Just as it was initially overcast, you can also …

May 29, 2023,MTB Tour von Piding über Oberjettenberg nach Reith bei Lofer

Tip 1:
Always use the cycle path in Schneitzelreut - after the bike underpass (B21) keep left!! Drive over the river for about 150m in the direction of Reichenhall and take the road uphill at the car park.

Tip2: In Oberjettenberg, before the Bundeswehr area, take the road on the left. The tarred road continues past the cable car. Before …
