Prepare right

To make sure you are well prepared for the adventure, here are some tips on how to prepare:

Fitness: The Stoneman Taurista is demanding, so a good basic level of fitness is important. Regular training on your mountain bike will help you to build up the necessary stamina.
Equipment: A well-maintained mountain bike is essential. Don't forget spare parts such as tubes, chain oil and a tool kit. Weatherproof clothing and sufficient food and drink are also essential.
Navigation: The route is well signposted, but a GPS device or map is still helpful to keep you on the right track.

 

Highlights on the road

 

  • Rossbrand: From Altenmarkt, the 1,768 metre high Rossbrand beckons. An overwhelming panoramic view of over 150 striking Alpine peaks - such as the Dachstein, Bischofsmütze and the Großglockner in the Hohe Tauern - is the reward.
  • NEW: Penkkopf Kleinarl: High above Wagrain-Kleinarl, a brand new checkpoint awaits your starter map with a view of the summit of the Penkkopf. With two new trails, the Stoneman Taurista is even better here!
  • Obertauern: This well-known ski resort shows its quiet and picturesque side in summer and offers a perfect opportunity for a well-earned break.
    Alpine pastures: Numerous alpine pastures along the route invite you to linger and enjoy local specialities.
