The starter, main course and dessert can be split between several restaurants. Would you like to try it? This tour offers you the opportunity to do so - with a cheese alp as the crowning glory.
Moderately difficult family cycle tour from Hopfgarten im Brixental to Käsealm Straubing. You cycle along the Windauer Ache river on well-maintained paths through the Windau valley. The route is easy at first, then climbs a little more steeply to the Käsealm, where you can enjoy homemade cheese, bacon and schnapps. Along the way, there are always artistically decorated old houses and other places to stop for refreshments, including Gasthof Lendwirt and Gasthof Jägerhäusl in Rettenbach.
The starting point for this tour is the Wasserfeld car park P3. From there, follow signpost no. 227 in the direction of Kelchsau. After about 650 metres you leave the road and turn left over a bridge into the Elsbethen settlement. Cross the village and follow the signs (no. 227) to the Gruberberg junction. At the crossroads, turn left in the direction of Westendorf (no. 89) and follow the road to the Haslau power station (Unterwindau). There you cycle along the Windauer Ache, past the Lendwirt inn, to the Käsealm Straubing (no. 6).
Return to the starting point via trail no. 89 in the direction of Jägerhäusl and then follow signpost no. 6, past the Lendwirt, to Hopfgarten.
