    The approximately 30-kilometer-long, technically not too demanding tour takes you over the Sonnberg and the Heutal road to the end of the beautiful valley basin. Then follow a forest road to the Winklmoosalm in neighboring Bavaria. Here several huts and snack stations offer a small break. From there, it goes only downhill via the route of the gorges in the Unkenbachtal and past the bike specialist Gasthof Friedlwirt back to Unken, the starting point of the tour.

    This corresponds to tour SASA 20 in the bike map Salzburger Saalachtal

    Author’s recommendation

    The Gasthof Friedlwirt (with e-bike charging station) is a worthwhile stop just before the end of the tour. On a hot day, you can also enjoy a dip in the cool water while wild bathing.
