Vöslauer route

Check the functionality of brakes, tires, and suspension fork/damper before every ride. Always ride with hazard awareness and controlled speed, and adjust the route choice to the skill level of the group and the terrain. The Fair Play rules must be observed at all times. Single/shared trails and built routes in trail parks and trail centers feature more stones, roots, steep sections, steps, and sharp turns that require specific riding skills. When in doubt, simply dismount and push your bike.

A safe and functional mountain bike is a prerequisite for all routes. Helmet and gloves protect during falls and can be supplemented on single/shared trails by knee and elbow protectors. A modern mountain bike with disc brakes and sufficient tire tread is recommended. For single and shared trails from the red difficulty level, a full-suspension bike with modern geometry is recommended. Tools, tire levers, pump, and spare tube help in the event of a breakdown. Enough provisions (drinks and food) should also be carried along as well as mobile phone and wind/rain jacket.

This easy family route starts from the Waldtennis Club at the Kurpark, initially heading onto Lange Gasse and from there continuing to Oberkirchengasse. We follow the street along the edge of the vineyards straight ahead, ride through the idyllic Berggasse and then turn right into Steinbruchgasse to Sonnenweg, where we then turn right onto Merkensteiner Straße. At the next intersection we turn right and follow the street until km 6.1, where we turn left to leave the forest again. At km 7.5 on Haidlhofstraße, we turn right onto the Güterweg/bike path Merkenstein and then onto a side road along the „Neue Umfahrungsstraße“ to the B212. From there the route leads back to the starting point.
