    From the parking lot of the Watzmann Spa, we ride on the Berchtesgadener Radstern-Ost (white star on brown background) first to Unterau, then off the main road to Oberau and onwards to Roßfeldstraße. On the wide ring road we climb up to the Roßfeld ski area. With a view towards the Göll east wall, we cycle along the ridge. 

    Author’s recommendation

    The descent on the wide road with many hairpin bends is a pleasure.

    From the Watzmann Spa, we cycle along Bergwerkstraße to the Gollenbach Bridge. Along the Berchtesgadener Ache, the meadow path takes us to Unterau. On the main road, we cycle towards the Enzianbrennerei Grassl. On the opposite side, the steep Reckenbergstraße branches off towards Scheffau, which we follow up to the turning into Lindenweg.

     

    Via Oberau, we cycle on Weißensteiner Weg to Roßfeldstraße. Now we ride with the mountain bikes on the Roßfeld Panorama Road up to the highest point of the road. Along the ridge, it goes to Obere Ahornalm and then on the south side of Roßfeldstraße back downhill. From the south toll station, follow the directions of MTB Route 8: Kehlstein Loop!
