The bike path from Mallnitz to Spittal is well signposted! Some sections require chunkier tires! 🚵♂️ There's plenty of interesting things to see and some great places to stop for a break!

The descent in winter is similar to the ascent. You have to get down somehow. Important: You should know how to move on snowfields. I had to cross several to get back to the ascent saddle...

There are white and red pillars everywhere, but in winter they are more of a landmark. You just have to fiddle your way up to the saddle somehow.
