Dobratsch circuit

The start of this very scenic route around Villach's local mountain is in Villach-Lind. Via the districts of St. Martin, Neufellach, as well as Lower and Upper Fellach, it continues over Mittewald and Heiligengeist towards Bad Bleiberg. The old federal road leads into the high valley between the Dobratsch and the Bleiberg ore mountain. Through shady forest sections and along blooming meadows, we reach the old mining town of Bad Bleiberg. From here, it goes downhill to Nötsch and through the town to the Gail. We cross the bridge and immediately turn off again to Feistritz. In this village, with its beautiful old square and its mighty lime tree, you can take a break in the traditional Gasthof Post before tackling the short climb.

Via the villages of Achomitz, Dreulach, and Draschitz, the federal road leads over the idyllic high plateau. We arrive at Arnoldstein and cycle the last stage without further climbs quickly via Pöckau and Neuhaus, finally returning via Unterschütt to Müllnern and via Villach-Warmbad back to the starting point.
