Description

The start of this sporty and challenging tour is at the Bike and MTB Info Point at the P3 Wasserfeld car park in Hopfgarten. Cross the Brixentaler Ache river to the left in a northerly direction and ride through the centre of Hopfgarten after the railway subway. Follow the signs through the village and after the old people's home continue to the Aussersalvenberg. Now you need strong 'calves'. The asphalt road winds up the mountain in seemingly countless hairpin bends, with magnificent views to be enjoyed time and again. After the mountain farm 'Schorn', the route now runs along the generously laid out forest road. An absolute must: the summit of the Kleine Salve! Shortly before reaching the Alpengasthof Rigi, turn left at the technical centre of the mountain railway and after about 1 km you will reach the mountain station of the Salvistabahn. From the Kitzbühel Alps to the Hohe Tauern, the Karwendel Mountains, the Wilder Kaiser and the Hohe Salve - a breathtaking panoramic view of the Tyrolean mountains. After the detour, it is a matter of completing the crisp counter-ascension to the actual destination after the short descent. Connecting routes: moderately difficult tour Salvenberg-Rigi (MTB 297) in the direction of Westendorf or the black Salvenberggrunde (MTB 269) in the direction of Itter and Hopfgarten.
