Cycling in Upper Austria

What a stroke of luck for cyclists, this Upper Austria! The imposing mountains in the south, the gentle hills in the north, and in between the friendly plains of the many river valleys and lakes ... an Austria in miniature, as the locals like to say. There are quiet treasures and lively places, great food and lively culture. And there is a dense network of cycle paths that open up this multifaceted wealth both on- and off-road. Challenging or leisurely, action-packed or relaxed. For trekking bikers, mountain bikers or racing cyclists. For connoisseurs with or without electricity. And for those looking for a special incentive: there are also top events in all segments, whether for watching or participating!
