Gravel tour Of canals and gravel dreams | Haus der Ruhe - Schlägl Abbey

This 70-kilometre gravel tour with around 1000 meters of elevation gain is a real highlight for anyone looking for a gentle adventure.

Right at the start, you roll across wide meadows and fields on the Austrian side - with wonderful panoramic views of small, idyllic villages. The climbs are moderate, the paths are well-maintained and the gravel runs as if by itself. Soon you are immersed in the tranquillity of the national park, where dense mixed and coniferous forests alternate and you are riding on over 50% of the finest gravel paths. Over the border in the Czech Republic

the route takes you deep into untouched nature - accompanied by clear streams, soft forest floor and small clearings that offer views of the Vltava reservoir. Along the way, rustic huts invite you to take a cozy break - perfect for a coffee or a snack with a view. On the way back, the landscape opens up again: rolling hills, wide fields and beautiful views of the Mühlviertel, where you can relax and let the day roll by. A perfect mix of flow, nature and panoramic views - a gravel tour that will make your heart and legs happy in equal measure.
