Kring family circuit, Vorau

Name: Kring family circuit, Vorau
Brand: Steiermark
Rating: 3 (1 reviews)

This family circuit in Vorau in the Joglland - Waldheimat region is an easy cycle tour for young and old. The Kring offers flatter terrain to cycle along as well as cozy places to relax in the middle of nature.

The tour starts at the URKRAFT Arena in Vorau, right next to Vorau Abbey, the only canonical monastery still active in Styria. The URKRAFT Arena is Vorau's sports center, where another excursion destination awaits young cyclists. On the freely accessible pump track, the aim is to build up speed without pedaling by pushing your body up from the depths of the bike. The perfect addition to the Kring family circuit with a ride time of just over an hour. Over a distance of approx. 8 kilometers, 60 meters of altitude are overcome - so nothing stands in the way of a leisurely family day on the bike.

Detailed information on how to get here can be found here.

We start the family circuit at the URKRAFT Arena and ride past the schools to the hospital junction. We cross the junction and after the slight ascent towards Badsiedlung, a short descent follows. We cross a narrow bridge to reach the Oberer Markt and cross the Rathausplatz. The route is now mostly flat. Along Kringstraße, you can enjoy the far-reaching views and experience animals and nature. The same route leads back to the URKRAFT Arena.

At the URKRAFT Arena, guests can expect a wide range of outdoor activities for young and old. From the pump track to an exercise park, there is plenty to explore.

Timetables and travel information can be found at Österreichische Bundesbahnen (ÖBB) or at Verkehrsauskunft Verbundlinie.
