Touring in Southeast Styria

Blessed with a wonderful climate, the hill country region of Southeast Styria (the “Hügelland”) offers tours throughout the year suitable for any level of fitness. Wonderful jogging paths weaving around the hotels and hot springs; majestic climbing walls on the rocks of the Riegersburg; over 3,000 km of signposted cycling routes; stunning golf courses; wild rivers for canoeing; as well as hiking trails make Southeast Styria a promised land for people who love to be active.

Sport and enjoyment go hand-in-hand on the pleasure cycling tours (“Genussradeltouren”) and e-bike tours criss-crossing the region: it’s an inherent part of the Thermen- & Vulkanland. Cycling for pleasure means looking at the journey as the destination, like cycling to a traditional “Buschenschank” (wine tavern), for example. Wonderful panoramic views included! Hikers won’t be on their feet all the time either as they rack up the miles: wine taverns, winegrowers, restaurants and local producers are all tempting places to stop off for a short break and to sample the local delicacies. A dense network of cycling services and bike hire offers offer cyclists a top-notch experience.
