Popular around Unterer Weilhartforst
With over 100 km², the Weilharter Forst is one of the largest contiguous forest areas in Upper Austria and an absolute paradise for gravel bikers. 🌲🚴♂️ This awaits you: Surface: Thanks to the glacial moraine gravel soils, the forest paths here are extremely firm and usually super rideable even after rain. Perfect for high-speed segments! Pure nature: The forest is a huge water reservoir and provides pleasant cooling in summer – like a natural air conditioner. Topography: It is rather flat to gently hilly (highest point Adenberg approx. 531 m), which allows for relaxed kilometer collecting far away from car traffic. In this section, you will find the section from Weißplatz/Werberg towards Hochburg (or vice versa)
