 **A bike ride around the Irrsee is one of the absolute classics in the Salzkammergut.**

 Get yourself a bike and enjoy cycling around the Irrsee lake a nature protected area. Our tour starts in the town centre of Mondsee and leads passing by the stadion into our scenic landscape. After few kilometers we meet the banks of the Irrsee lake. Just follow the quayside around the lake.

Insiders' tip: take enough time for this tour. Around the Irrsee there are a lot of things to discover like rare plants and animals living in the nature protected areas as well as LandArt projects, meaning artwork included into the landscape.
