Der große Jogl 2,5 Etappen: Fischbach - Masenberg, Fishbach

The third stage of the touring mountain bike route “Der große Jogl” leads from Fischbach via Birkfeld, Strallegg and Wenigzell to Masenberg.
The stage from Fischbach to Masenberg takes around nine hours. From Fischbach, the tour takes us to the market town of Birkfeld, with numerous shopping and refreshment opportunities. The home of the “Edlseer” is also known for the delicious Felber chocolates from its own factory, the sound tunnel and the Feistritztalbahn. You reach Strallegg along a section of the R8 Feistritztal cycle path, which was built on a former railroad line. Strallegg has already won several awards in the Styrian flower decoration competition. The next municipality on the tour is Wenigzell. The professional athletes of the Tour of Austria celebrated their finish here in 2018. The route leads over the “Toten Mann” to Miesenbach and then to the Masenberg.

A special service along the tour “Der große Jogl” is the luggage transport - simply cycle carefree, without any annoying extra luggage. While you are out and about, your luggage will be taken to your next stage destination (by 5 p.m. at the latest).
