    It is about 20 kilometers to Liezen, the economic center of the region. We now come out of the high alpine area into a completely different, but equally beautiful landscape. The natural spectacle of the Gesäuse with the only national park in Styria are now the dominant "theme". But also cultural highlights are not missing: Admont Abbey with its Abbey Library is one of the most important natural monuments in Austria and is one of the great total works of art of the European late Baroque.

    Roadbook

    First of all, we head for Maitschern, keep to the right, cross under the main road once again and continue on to Wörschach. In a southeasterly direction the path leads out of the village - under the federal highway - then turns left and a little later right again to the railroad. Unpaved road comes, which leads us back to the river in a right turn. On the left: the Wörschacher Moos.

    We are now cycling along the Enns again. In sight of the village of Fischern we cross over to the other side - in a left turn we continue on unpaved ground through the Rosswiesen (in the direction of the golf course), and at the road turn left and cross the bridge. Before the road turns half-left under the railroad to Weißenbach, we keep straight on and follow the signs to Liezen. Welcome to the district capital of Austria's largest district in terms of area.

    Tip: For the onward journey from Liezen you have two options to choose from:

    Either, you continue on the partly newly developed cycle path along the Enns via Pürgschachen. However, you must take into account that the path often leads next to busy roads. Or you can make a small detour around the Mitterberg via Lassing, Strechau Castle and Selzthal. This route is hillier, but quieter.

    From Liezen we cycle in the direction of Döllach to Ardning, where we pass through the village on the cycle path. Then the route initially leads again parallel to the main road on the cycle path, then - shortly before the Frauenberg slip road - right over the Mödringer bridge to the right edge of the valley, attention: sharp left turn. Here we meet up again with those who may have taken the alternative from the direction of Selzthal. Continue now always along the railroad line - after about 6.5 kilometers you will reach Admont, the site of the famous Benedictine monastery of the same name.

    Stop. Here it must be: We leave our bikes "alone" for a short while and at least visit the incredible library. It is considered one of the largest in the world. During a fire in 1865 that reduced most of the buildings to rubble, it was miraculously spared. Speaking of miracles, 70,000 of the total 200,000 volumes belonging to the Benedictines can be seen here. This is one of the reasons why people used to talk about the eighth wonder of the world. The state room is 70 meters long, 14 meters wide, 11 meters high and is illuminated by 60 windows. More than 150,000 volumes are housed here.
