Description

Start at Rattenberg East car park/P4 and cycle westwards through Rattenberg, Austria's smallest town. Cycle along the Inn Cycle Path to Brixlegg. At the bike stop, turn left onto the B171 and for a short distance cycle on the main road until you reach the entrance gate to Matzen Park. The beautiful tree lined path leads through the park. The sight of the Matzen and Lipperheide Castles takes you back to long gone times. Now drive about 100 m next to the B171 federal road in the direction of St. Gertraudi and cross the road to reach Lichtwerth Castle via a small bridge. 

For approx. 100 m cycle alongside the B171 towards St. Gertraudi and cross the road to reach Lichtwerth Castle via a small bridge. A narrow meadow path leads past the castle to the Inn Cycle Path. Turn right and cycle leisurely past the Lido and the Bike Stop back to Rattenberg. 

Shortly before Brixlegg you will find the Skillpark & Pumptrack Rattenberg/Brixlegg, a great training area for bikers.

Note: total time for the tour incl. visits and stops: approx. 2 hours
