Tauern Cycle Path
Topography
Route
The full tour of the Tauern Cycle Path is 270 km in length
(Krimml - Bruck - Salzburg - Zell am See/Bruck).
Mostly gently downhill as you drop in elevation from 1076 m in Krimml, to 425 m in Salzburg.  There are only two uphill stages - both along the mid Salzach river (Schwarzach, Werfen).
Counterclockwise
We recommend tackling this tour in a counterclockwise direction.  Approximately one quarter of the route consists of a surface of fine sand, while the rest is paved.
90 Percent Cycle Paths
Over 90 % of the tour is along cycle paths or low-traffic side roads.  As a consequence, lightweight touring bikes and trekking bikes are ideal.  Mountain bikes make it possible to enjoy additional side trips through alpine terrain.  The route is only minimally suitable for racing bikes.
