Mountain bike tour Starting from Neustift
The attraction of this tour lies in the constant change of landscapes: From the dark Vienna Woods, the route quickly turns into open meadows and then back onto secluded forest paths. In between, we climb some challenging hills and pass the hidden Falkensteiner Huts.

The Schoderleh route offers a varied mix of dense forests, open meadows and idyllic forest trails, which repeatedly offer impressive views of the Vienna Woods and the surrounding countryside. With an elevation gain of 758 meters, the route represents a sporting challenge and is particularly suitable for experienced mountain bikers. A highlight along the route is the Falkensteiner Huts, a tucked-away rest stop that is an insider tip. The combination of challenging climbs and natural trails makes this tour a rewarding experience for ambitious riders.
Before every ride, check the functionality of brakes, tires, and suspension fork/shock absorber. Always ride with hazard awareness and controlled speed, and adapt the route selection to the riding skills of the group and the surface conditions. The Fair Play rules must always be observed. Single/shared trails and constructed routes in trail parks and trail centers feature more stones, roots, steep sections, steps, and tight turns that require a certain skill level. When in doubt, simply dismount and push the bike.
A safe and functional mountain bike is a prerequisite for all routes. Helmet and gloves protect in case of falls and can be supplemented by knee and elbow protection on single/shared trails. A modern mountain bike with disc brakes and sufficient tire tread is recommended. For single and shared trails from red difficulty level onward, a fully suspension bike with modern geometry is recommended. Tools, tire levers, pump, and spare tube help in case of a breakdown. Enough provisions (drinks and food) should also be carried, as well as a mobile phone and wind/rain jacket.
Starting from Neustift, we ride up Hochfeldstraße and into the forest. After a few meters, we turn left at a large intersection onto a new route and follow the signage. After a few hundred meters, partly steep uphill, the path levels off at the top and we rejoin the original route on a beautiful forest path leading to Brandhäusl. There we turn right towards Trainst and Gießhübl and continue through the forest and over Gumpersberg to Außerfurth. Via Reitermühlstraße to Altlengbach and further to the sports club where the path leads back into the forest towards Lengbachl. Afterwards, we pass through Kaltenberg, past Hochstraß, and over Hasenriegel towards Falkensteiner Hut. From there, it goes downhill to Schoderleh and back to Neustift via Innermanzing along the Laabenbach.
