Attention cycling fans

Mountain bike Eldorado Dorfgastein

The biking offers in Dorfgastein extend through the valley and into the alpine terrain. While families can explore the village on leisurely bikes, passionate mountain bikers can conquer the Fulseck at full speed. However, you should not be put off by the athletic distance to the summit.

You can also master the route at a leisurely pace - with the support of the mountain railroad. An appropriate ticket gives you and your two-wheeler access to the gondola. Once at the top, you are sure to have the energy you need to master the adventurous single trail - several times if you feel like it.
