    From Spielberg in the Murtal Region the route takes us via Weißkirchen and Obdach in the direction of Carinthia - we now head towards Klippitztörl - the pass at 1,642m - before continuing towards Althofen. At Gössling we turn off to the historical castle Hochosterwitz, where we have a great view in good weather up to the mountain group of the Karawanken. Afterwards we drive to the popular Wörthersee in Velden. The small chic metropolis in the west bay of the Wörthersee where film history was written with Roy Black, Uschi Glas etc.. The Schlosshotel Velden is still today a vacation home of international stars and a popular photo motif as well as an inviting place to stroll and make guest appearances. Also at the Harley Davidson meeting at the nearby Faakersee, Velden is always a popular stop. Along the south shore we drive to Reifnitz, famous for the annual GTI meeting where we ride uphill to the Pyramidenkogel. The 100 meters worldwide highest wooden observation tower can also be left through a slide. Breathtaking is the view from the 3 platforms on the turquoise blue Wörthersee, Keutschacher See and unique panoramic view over the whole of Carinthia. Passing the capital Klagenfurt we drive to the popular bathing lake of the Styrians, the Klopeinersee. We continue to Lavamünd via the mountain road Soboth to the southern wine region of Styria to Eibiswald directly at the Slovenian border. From there we drive north again to the Packsattel and further over the Gaberl to the Red Bull Ring where we can do a 90-minute tour (reservation required), which is normally closed to visitors.

    Our special tips on the route:

    Kippitztörl - at the top of the pass there is also a summer toboggan run, which provides an adrenaline kick of a completely different kind. Hochosterwitz CastleeldenPyramid KogelOld Town Klagenfurt - Lindwurm


    Author’s recommendation

    Besides the numerous lakes we encounter here, a stop in Velden and the Pyramidenkogel is worthwhile, which offers a magnificent view over the turquoise blue Wörthersee.  If you like, you can make a small detour to the nearby Faakersee, where the world's largest Harley Davidson Festival with 100.000 visitors takes place every year.

    Equipment

    No risk, more fun! The fascination of motorbikes and the fun of riding them are accompanied by an increased risk of accidents and injuries for riders. This makes it all the more important for every biker to realistically assess the risks of their hobby and find ways to keep them as low as possible. Adjust your speed to the driving conditions - almost all our routes lead along winding roads, some of which are difficult to see.

    We ask you to take special care on the mountain roads

    • Soboth
    • Packsattel
    • Gaberl
    Think about the optimal driver equipment: helmet with new ECE standard, good protective clothing with integrated protectors, motorcycle gloves and boots.
