Moderately difficult mountain bike tour. Good basic condition required. Advanced riding technique necessary.

The starting point of the tour can be reached by public transport.

This tour leads from the center of Langenwang in the direction of Langenwanger Schwöbing. From here it goes steadily uphill along the 10 km long Traibachgraben and on to the Hauereck to the Hauereck hut.

We drive from the center of Langenwang in the direction of Krieglach and turn halfway left into the Langenwanger Schwöbing. Here we follow the marker number 6 and ride the approx. 10 km long Traibachgraben uphill to the Hauereck.

Author’s recommendation

Contains a section where cycling is prohibited.

Here you will have to dismount and push.

A small 'detour' to the Almbauer is worth it! At the highest mountain farm in the Mürztal there is a snack station in the middle of the picturesque landscape of the Waldheimat!

Turn-by-turn directions

We start our tour in the center of Langenwang and cycle on the Grazer Straße in the direction of Krieglach. At the Schwöbing junction on the B 306b we continue cycling into the Langenwanger Schwöbing towards Alpl. At a sharp right turn we turn left into the Traibachgraben. This path leads us in a slight ascent along the ditch. The last 3 km up to the Hauereck are somewhat steeper and more impassable.
