    Wir haben die Tour nach starken Regenfällen gemacht. Sie war überwiegend gut zu gehen, Wanderschuhe sollten aber unbedingt getragen werden wg der Waldpassagen (matschig, nass, rutschig) und Stöcke könnten auch helfen. Die Klamm ist auch bei/nach Regen interessant und gut zu begehen. Achtung: Der erste Teil der Strecke am Fluss entlang zur Klamm ist heute gesperrt gewesen, sodass wir umkehren und an der Straße zum Start der Klamm laufen mussten!

    nonostante il tempo incerto, bella la discesa da Badhofgastain a Bischofhofen....poi treno fino a Salisburgo. Dall'ingresso in Baviera, il panorama è cambiato, addolcendosi, tanti, troppi pascoli a discapito dei boschi e aria che profuma sempre di fieno e mucche. Impegnative le ciclabili con continui saliscendi anche con pendenza oltre il 7% Arrivo a Bergen alle 15.00, quasi con inizio della pioggia.

    Sensationelle Tour, am besten mit E-Bike, an der Salzach lang bis zum wunderschönen Bergsee und zurück. Die Bademöglichkeit am Bergsee ist traumhaft. Sankt Johann im Pongau als Start und Zielpunkt ist eine ebenfalls sehenswerte Kleinstadt mit Flair.

    paesaggi alpini molto suggestivi, ma non è una tappa facile. I tratti in salita sono continui ed alcuni hanno pendenze che si fanno decisamente sentire sulle gambe. Richiede un buon allenamento se se hanno bici muscolari.. o buon fiato per spingere 😉

    Lohnenswertes Ausflugsziel für die ganze Familie. Wir haben die Klamm schon öfter besucht und waren immer wieder fasziniert. Ein Muss, wenn man mal in der Region ist oder hier Urlaub macht!

    Paesaggi stupendi, tappa emozionante ma molto impegnativa. Soprattutto l’ultima rampa per salire a Bad Gastein ..... non è per tutti.
