Allander Trekking Runde

Before every ride, check that the brakes, tires, and suspension fork/shock are in good working order. Always ride with an eye out for hazards and at a controlled speed, and choose a route that suits the group’s riding ability and the terrain. The Fair Play rules must be observed at all times. Single/shared trails, as well as built trails in trail parks and trail centers, often feature rocks, roots, steep sections, steps, and sharp turns that require a certain level of riding skill. If in doubt, simply dismount and walk your bike.

A safe and roadworthy mountain bike is a prerequisite for all routes. A helmet and gloves provide protection in the event of a fall, and knee and elbow pads can be added when riding on single or shared trails. A modern mountain bike with disc brakes and sufficient tire tread is recommended. For single and shared trails rated red or higher, a full-suspension bike with modern geometry is recommended. Tools, a tire lever, a pump, and a spare tube will come in handy in case of a flat tire. You should also bring plenty of food and drink, as well as a cell phone and a windbreaker or rain jacket.

A very pleasant ride takes us along a flat dirt road to the Alland Rehabilitation Center. From there, we ride down the paved road to Groisbach and then turn right back up to Föhraplatzl, which offers a beautiful view of the surrounding meadows. Passing through woods and meadows, we roll downhill to Maria Raisenmarkt. Following the signs, we take a flat gravel road to Untermaierhof and continue on paved road toward Mayerling. We follow the Schwechat River along the Helenetal Bike Trail back to the starting point.
