    By bike through the Leitha Mountains - for this, the 60-kilometer mountain biking network around Eisenstadt and the Leithaland region offers the best conditions. Mountain bikers can expect varied routes in intact nature here.

    The signposted trails through the Leitha Mountains can be well mastered with your own muscle power. Sometimes narrow, sometimes wider paths through the intact forest of the Leitha Mountains bring the biker exciting moments in healthy nature. Whether beginner, leisure biker, or demanding rider – everyone gets their money’s worth here.

    Safety information

    Austria: There is a bicycle helmet obligation for children up to 12 years. Warning vests are not mandatory at dusk, in darkness, or in poor visibility, but definitely an advantage. A mobile phone would also be beneficial for your safety.
