A cycling paradise with a dreamy backdrop<br />
While in winter the area around the Saukaser, Pengelstein, Brechhorn and the Hohe Salve<br />
are perfect 'playgrounds' for carvers, boarders and leisure skiers, in summer these routes<br />
provide the most fantastic climbs and the speediest descents for mountain bikes. Panoramic<br />
views to the dreamy backdrop of the Wilder Kaiser, the Kitzbüheler Horn, the Hohe<br />
Salve, the Großvenediger and the Großglockner are of course included. Anyone who wants<br />
to treat themselves to a relaxed ascent to the trails and to enjoy tours in higher locations<br />
can travel by cable car. In keeping with the maxim 'Mountain biking light' you can save<br />
yourself the sweat-inducing ascent: just hop onto the gondola; bike transport is of course<br />
provided free of charge.<br />
Ride like a pro<br />
In the Bike Academy, Austria’s first mountain bike school, ambitious riders get to train like<br />
pros. In the Academy’s own Bike Park technique training is to the fore. Head out on routes<br />
of varying lengths and difficulty levels over hill and dale – or asphalt - with experienced<br />
guides. National team trainer Kurt Exenberger provides tips on how to improve your technique<br />
and tactics.<br />
Up the valley – down the valley<br />
Not everyone feels easy about climbing 'chamois-like' with the bike in this mountain biking<br />
paradise. For all those of you who would rather have the well-developed cycle trail network,<br />
Brixental has something to offer everyone. Easily truncated routes with low altitude differences<br />
take you through the entire Brixental region and its natural lateral valleys. A genuine<br />
paradise with countless kilometres for family excursions by bike, with lots of stops to relax,<br />
take a breather and play.<br />

ST. JOHANN IN TIROL St. Johann in Tirol, Oberndorf, Kirchdorf, Erpfendorf<br />
A meeting point for sporty connoisseurs!<br />
The holiday region of the Kitzbüheler Alpen St. Johann in Tirol is known far and wide for its<br />
well-developed cycling and mountain bike trail network. On the mountain and in the valley<br />
there are a variety of possibilities for cycle touring. There are more than 200km of cycle and<br />
mountain bike trails in total, for all ability levels which take you to the loveliest places in<br />
the Alpine region and which get cyclists’ hearts beating faster. Highlights such as the river<br />
adventure trail and also the Mozart cycle trail are here for you to ride on. Between the<br />
Wilder Kaiser, Kalkstein and the Kitzbüheler Horn there are mountain bike routes for all<br />
ability levels.<br />
With the pros around the Wilder Kaiser!<br />
The cycling adventure around St. Johann in Tirol has even been tested by the pros. Every<br />
year the 'Who’s Who' of cycling‘s former elite riders compete between the Kitzbüheler Horn<br />
and the Kaiser mountains. Some 4000 participants from 53 nations will once again this<br />
year take part in the biggest cycle sport event in the world and do battle for the coveted<br />
medals on the 40 km road circuit. The festival of cycling at the foot of the Kaiser will take<br />
place this year from 25.8. – 1.9. Patron of the main event is none other than Italy’s cycling<br />
legend Francesco Moser. There is even something on offer away from the exciting races.<br />
Every day a versatile programme of supporting events is organised.<br />
Pure Alpine lodge culture!<br />
The region around St. Johann in Tirol, Oberndorf, Kirchdorf and Erpfendorf is a highlight for<br />
connoisseurs. On all the routes between the Kitzbüheler Horn and the Kaiser mountains<br />
traditional Alpine lodges and mountain guesthouses tempt you in. Since summits and tasty<br />
treats are closely connected with one another. The choice of restaurants, bars and guesthouses<br />
is wide and above all else, versatile. Enjoy the views to the mountain summits and<br />
some tasty treats!<br />

<strong>Cycling</strong> in Kitzbühel<br />
Kitzbühel is an absolute hot spot for cyclists. The range on offer for all target groups is versatile<br />
and rich in diversity.<br />
Racing cyclists<br />
In the last few years the number of tourist and local racing cyclists has increased at a fast<br />
pace. The mountain finishes on the Kitzbüheler Horn as part of the Tour of Austria in particular<br />
have given the local scene a jolt. The mythical Kitzbüheler Horn – the steepest cycling mountain<br />
in Austria – is increasingly casting a spell over leisure cyclists! Kitzbühel is starting the<br />
new 2012 cycling season with 1200km of newly selected race bike tours and the race bike<br />
guide 'Kitz Roadbike'.<br />
Mountain bike<br />
The mountain bike has already established itself in Kitzbühel as a traditional piece of sports<br />
equipment. The gentle mountain landscape of the Kitzbüheler Alpen with countless forest and<br />
Alpine trails is predestined for practising this sport. 800km of mountain bike and cycle touring<br />
trails as well as lively trails are available.<br />
Cycle touring<br />
Without the stress of being in traffic, you can spend your time cycling on the numerous minor<br />
roads with the whole family and enjoy the beauty of the landscape. Many of the cycle touring<br />
trails proceed along the rivers and streams in the Kitzbüheler Alpen.<br />

Olympic participant Lisi Osl speaks<br />
about bumpy and steep ascents, and her life on the mountain bike since Beijing 2008<br />
What is the aspect<br />
about your training<br />
area in the Kitzbüheler<br />
Alpen which you prize<br />
most?<br />
The versatility. There is practically<br />
any type of terrain: high<br />
mountains, hilly terrain and also flat routes for base endurance<br />
training. On the countless singletrails I can do a lot of<br />
work on my technique. Meeting hikers on the mountain is<br />
always a nice change; they marvel at all the places you can<br />
go on a bike. There is also always a managed Alpine lodge to<br />
stop-off for a bite to eat and re-energise.<br />
What is your favourite mountain bike tour in<br />
the Kitzbüheler Alpen?<br />
That‘s difficult to say, there are so many opportunities for us<br />
to head out on a bike, so I wouldn’t want to specify a specific<br />
tour right now. I ride quite a lot in the mountains around the<br />
Spertental.<br />
How do you keep your base endurance at<br />
a high level during the season? Continual<br />
mountain bike tours certainly take it out of<br />
you, don’t they?<br />
Yes, they do! A climb of 500 metres altitude or more is not<br />
really suitable for the less intense training sessions. The area<br />
around St. Johann in Tirol is excellently suited to extended<br />
race bike tours, with fewer metres altitude. To have a top race<br />
bike area right on your doorstep is a real stroke of luck for<br />
any racing cyclist.<br />
Page 14<br />
What helps you recover after your strenuous<br />
training sessions?<br />
I enjoy the peace and quiet at home to recharge my batteries.<br />
A walk (preferably barefoot) in the late afternoon to Sonnberg,<br />
really relaxes me.<br />
At which of the many big cycling events<br />
in the region will people get to see you in<br />
person?<br />
At our flagship event of course - the <strong>KitzAlpBike</strong> Festival<br />
(27.06.-01.07.12). The challenging cross country route with<br />
the steep climbs and spectacular descents really suit me. It’s a<br />
super feeling to win at home in front of so many people!<br />
At the Hahnenkamm race too, quite simply a mountain classic,<br />
I‘ll venture to the start again. The battle up the 900 metres altitude<br />
to the famous ski mountain takes me just 36 minutes, but<br />
takes more out of me than a 2-hour Cross Country race. The<br />
annual Masters <strong>Cycling</strong> World Championships in St. Johann in<br />
Tirol (25.08-01.09.2012) are something special, where I can be<br />
found on the route frenetically encouraging all the riders, with a<br />
great deal of admiration.<br />
I do of course also watch the King of the Mountains stage of<br />
the Tour of Austria. The atmosphere there is something that you<br />
really shouldn’t miss!<br />
What are your future aims in the sport?<br />
I would like to get my world cup ranking as far up to the top as<br />
I possibly can. There’s also the 2012 Olympic Games in London<br />
in which I would like to take part.<br />

General information - So you stay safe while on the go and know the score about everything!<br />
Rules of conduct<br />
After severe weather the trails can be almost impassable, stones and trees<br />
may block the route. Trails often proceed through steep terrain where there<br />
is the risk of crashing. Usually danger sites of this sort are not secured.<br />
Since our forests and Alpine pastures are managed, on approved MTB<br />
routes you should be aware that there may be vehicular traffic. It may also<br />
be the case that routes will be inaccessible on occasion, since forestry<br />
work may be carried out on the route.<br />
For this reason there are very special rules of conduct which apply<br />
on Tyrol MTB routes, to protect the rider and also for all those people<br />
for whom the forest is a place of work. It is in your own interests to<br />
adhere to the rules and the occasional unavoidable barriers:<br />
• Always ride at a controlled speed and be vigilant, especially at bends<br />
since there may be obstacles at any time (e.g. damage to the bike trail,<br />
stones, branches, wood which has been placed in temporary storage,<br />
grazing animals, cattle grids, barriers, tractor-forestry machinery,<br />
authorised vehicles)!<br />
• Watch out for hikers and walkers and only overtake at walking speed!<br />
• Be aware of the difficulty level of the route and assess your experience<br />
and ability as a rider accordingly! Wear a helmet to protect your head<br />
and check your equipment before each bike tour (brakes, bell, light)!<br />
• Stop at barriers and accept the fact that the primary purpose of this<br />
route is for agricultural and forestry use! Close gates!<br />
• Show consideration to the natural surroundings and the wild animals;<br />
do not leave the marked route; avoid riding off the open trails and finish<br />
your bike tour before sunset. Do not leave any rubbish!<br />
Singletrail specific rules of conduct:<br />
• Please note! You ride at your own risk and only at a walking<br />
pace – the condition of the trails are not inspected!<br />
• Watch out for hikers, grazing animals and wild animals – do<br />
not ride away from the path!<br />
• Be aware of Alpine dangers!<br />

MTB signposts<br />
Difficulty level<br />
Much like ski pistes, official mountain bike routes are also subdivided into<br />
difficulty levels, which are shown in the route signposts.<br />
Difficulty levels help you to choose a route and your equipment.<br />
The guidelines,according to which mountain bike routes are provided with<br />
difficulty levels, are not laws or ordinances, rather they are standards issued<br />
by the state government in the context of a private company,<br />
and are graded blue, red, black and yellow.<br />
leicht<br />
mittel<br />
sch wierig<br />
Easy Moderate Difficult Singletrail<br />
Easy tour / BLUE ROUTE: easy<br />
Family-friendly cycle trail which can be tackled with standard bicycles;<br />
good track cover (fine gravel or asphalt and similar coverage). Inclines<br />
and descents between 0% and 5%, on short sections a maximum of 10%.<br />
Alternates between inclines and descents, no continuous ascents. Routes<br />
are vehicle-free, or there are not many vehicles. Any specific danger areas<br />
or danger points are shown with specific labelling (e.g. signposts).<br />
Moderate difficulty level tour / RED ROUTE: moderate difficulty level<br />
Requires sport-level cycling ability and particularly careful riding. Mountain<br />
bike equipment is recommended. Inclines and descents between 5% and<br />
12%, on short sections up to a maximum of 17%. There may be unclear<br />
route sections which have a lot of bends. Expect to meet vehicular traffic<br />
which might take up the entire width of the route. The trail facilities,<br />
among others, the condition of the track, drainage facilities (e.g. water<br />
reels), shutoff devices (e.g. barriers), safety facilities (e.g. missing railings<br />
and fences) and information on danger points, is exclusively oriented to<br />
commercial traffic with tractors and trucks. Such facilities may present<br />
danger sites for cyclists.<br />
Expect routes to be cordoned off for operational requirements (e.g. wood<br />
logging and transport); in the trail area there may be stored goods, operating<br />
equipment and stored machinery and danger sites resulting from<br />
natural occurrences. On the trail any steep terrain which follows is not<br />
secured.<br />
Difficult tour / BLACK ROUTE: difficult<br />
Challenging MTB route with numerous dangerous sections which exceed<br />
the maximum incline of the red route and whose route characteristics are<br />
even more difficult. MTB equipment is obligatory. Riding with foresight and<br />
in a manner which is appropriate to the situation is required.<br />
Extremely difficult tour / SINGLETRAIL: extremely difficult<br />
Extreme and challenging route; no longer a route with vehicular traffic. Has<br />
the characteristics of an Alpine trail, with all the Alpine dangers. Crash-risk,<br />
no safety facilities such as railings are available; very steep. Expect to<br />
come across obstacles such as high steps, roots and boulders. Route not<br />
always ridable; there are some, depending on your riding ability, sections<br />
where you will have to push or carry the bike. Due to weather effects<br />
these routes are often only passable with difficulty.<br />
Information on bus and train connections:<br />
Would you like to cycle just one section and get home in a more comfortable<br />
fashion?<br />
No problem! The great bus and train connections in our region make your<br />
return and subsequent journeys a doddle!<br />
All information can be found on our homepage (www.kitzalps.com). The<br />
ladies and gentlemen in our respective Information Offices are also happy<br />
to help you look for the right connections!
DAY 1 / Wörgl – Kelchsau / approx. 1450 metres altitude<br />
The starting point for our 4-day tour right through the Kitzbühel Alpen is the vibrant shopping<br />
metropolis of Wörgl, (510 m), which is easy to get to via public transport and an ideal starting<br />
point for tours in the Kitzbühel Alpen.<br />
The first climb starts on Wildschönauer Straße at Gasthof Berghäusl and takes us on a good<br />
forest trail along Route No. 337 to Möslalmkogel (1109m). From the traditional Alpine lodge<br />
you get to enjoy a superb panoramic view into Inntal and to the Wilder Kaiser. Along the cycle<br />
path to the wooded Riederberg (1045 m) and descent to Pinnersdorf. From here proceed along<br />
cycle route No. 21 to Hopfgarten in Brixental. In Hopfgarten on Kelchsauer Straße, route No.<br />
229 begins on the Penningberg and continues along the toboggan run to Haagalm (1349 m).<br />
You can either treat yourself to some refreshments here or tackle the descent down to the<br />
mountain village of Kelchsau (800 m).<br />
Overnight stay options available in Kelchsau (Information tel.: +43 (0) 5335 8105)<br />

DAY 2 / Kelchsau – Westendorf / approx. 950 metres altitude<br />
Route 227 proceeds from the romantically located little village of Kelchsau to Hopfgarten.<br />
Hopfgarten with its historic town centre is worth a visit at any rate! From here proceed along<br />
cycle path No. 21 along Windauer Ache to the lateral valley of the same name. The first climb<br />
of this tour begins at Gasthof Lendwirt, which, via Route No. 206 heads down to the Schwaigerberg,<br />
Kinzlingalm (1165 m) and across Hochsparalm (1044m). Here you should take a<br />
detour and pay a visit to the traditional Käsealm. Re-invigorated continue to Jagerhäusl. From<br />
here Route 21 takes us comfortably along Windauer Ache to Westendorf, where the second<br />
day of the TransKITZalp finishes.<br />

In Westendorf, along Route 209, you proceed first of all via Fleidingalm to Brechhornhaus<br />
(1700m). Past the superbly located Kreuzjöchlsee (route number 210) via Wiegalm and continuing<br />
via the singletrail into Spertental. From here Route 203 proceeds along Aschauer Ache<br />
to Kirchberg. Here there are plenty of opportunities to recover from the first stage of the day.<br />
Continue through the town and a short section on the main road to the Fleckalmbahn. We use<br />
this as an ascent aid for the second stage of the day. Upon reaching Ehrenbachhöhe (1802<br />
m), we ride via route number 232 to Hahnenkammstüberl (1668m) and continue to the most<br />
spectacular ski run in the world – the Streif on the famous Hahnenkamm! Something which is<br />
even more impressive for all mountainbikers is the Ehrenbach trail down to Kitzbühel, where<br />
we bring the second day to a close in this dapper little town.<br />

alternative approx. 1000 metres altitude<br />
Today the King of the Mountain stage is on the agenda in the Kitzbühel Alpen! The Kitzbüheler<br />
Horn. Direct from Kitzbühel (800 m) we ride via Route 20a to Hintergrub. From here Bike Trail<br />
Tirol proceeds via Route 255 in steep, tarmac hairpin bends right up to the Kitzbüheler Horn<br />
and Alpenhaus (1670 m). The impressive view from here is best enjoyed during a break on the<br />
guest terrace. Bike Trail Tirol continues through Raintal (No. 254) via Reisenbergköpfl (1362<br />
m) into the valley. Via route number 71, via Fieberbrunn (790 m), we get to St. Jakob im Haus<br />
and continue to St.Ulrich am Pillersee (835 m). In Strass route number 221 proceeds through<br />
Lindtal to Winterstelleralm (1440 m). Continuing on a section where you have to push the bike<br />
you reach Gerstbergalm (1501 m) and route number 263. Adlerspoint Alm is a lovely place to<br />
stop for a bite to eat. Descent via Obingalm to Habach. Along the Grossache we indulge our<br />
calves on cycle route No. 17 and ride to our destination – St. Johann in Tirol.<br />
TIP: Time measurement facility for pro and leisure riders<br />
The hour of truth - whether you are a pro or a leisure rider, compete against<br />
the best riders with the time measurement facility on the Kitzbüheler Horn.<br />
Enjoy the ascent with exact distance signposts up to the 'Wall of Fame'.<br />

BIKE TRAIL TIROL<br />
Mountain biking pleasure over 800 km<br />
Bike Trail Tirol, at over 800 km, is the longest connected mountain bike<br />
circuit in the Alps. The adjoining routes, which are marked out as connecting<br />
to the main routes, make it possible for you to plan individual routes. On a<br />
total of 32 stages Bike Trail Tirol takes mountain bikers who are hungry for<br />
adventure right through all of Tyrol and of course through all regions in the<br />
Kitzbüheler Alpen! Choose where you want to start from; there is no one start and one end.<br />
It is difficult to deviate from the right trail, since the trail integrated system of signposts<br />
for the trail guides cyclists safely and without any roundabout ways, to where you want to<br />
get to. Bike Trail Tirol signs have been positioned on the existing signposts and are well<br />
visible and easy to read. The stages have been divided up according to length and difficulty<br />
level which means nobody will get onto the wrong route and feel over or under challenged.<br />
The new micro-page www.biketrail. tirol.at provides all the key information, such as route<br />
planners and outlines, an interactive map and detailed map excerpts, route profile and<br />
the route composition, free GPS data for each stage and road books of circuit tours are<br />
available to download.<br />

want to sit in the saddle all day long and who also hold adventure away from the mountain<br />
bike route in high regard.<br />

a view of Kirchberg’s Sonnberg opens up for<br />
us and when the weather is good we can gaze in<br />
wonderment at the cliff faces of the Wilder Kaiser.<br />
Having reached the highest point we have earned<br />
the descent – the many bends and hairpin bends<br />
are fantastically suited to honing your bend-riding<br />
technique.<br />

This tour is for everyone; the variant which uses<br />
the gondola is even suitable for children! From<br />
Brixen proceed continually uphill on a tarmac road<br />
to Gasthof Nieding, which proceeds from the barrier<br />
on a gravel path. From Hochbrixen mountain<br />
station at 1300m altitude the route becomes flatter.<br />
Here there is a change to take a detour to Filzalm.<br />
Otherwise the route proceeds directly past the<br />
wonderful Filzalmsee. After this you get to Gasthof<br />
Hochsöll and Hexenwasser adventure realm via<br />
Silleralm.<br />

Windautal, which has lots of stop-off options, is a<br />
very popular excursion destination for cycle tourers<br />
and mountain bikers. The in part slightly climbing<br />
route proceeds along Windauer Ache, which on hot<br />
days provides a refreshing cool-down. The aroma<br />
of tasty treats from the inns and Alpine lodges<br />
along the edge of the route often reaches your nostrils<br />
even when you are still kilometres away from<br />
the finish. (Change to extend the route: Bike route<br />

This lovely tour in the natural gem of Kelchsau provides,<br />
thanks to its location, continuous sunshine,<br />
particularly in the afternoon! Past the sawmill, and<br />
following the road, which heads uphill, we pass<br />
many Alpine pastures. During the ride a dreamy<br />
panorama view opens up across long and short<br />
ground. Descent via a good forest path through a<br />
wide Alpine pasture area.<br />

This 63 km road bike circuit takes us through<br />
the Unterinntal to Kramsach. Heading across hilly<br />
terrain provides an excellent opportunity to build<br />
up your fitness. Starting from the Tourist Office<br />
in Hopfgarten we ride on the old main road which<br />
doesn’t have much traffic, to Bruckhäusl, where we<br />
use the railway underpass. We continue to Wörgl<br />
until we reach Steinbruch; taking a right here up a<br />
short incline, through the town of Gasteig we come<br />
to Kirchbichl. From Kirchbichl we ride via Niederbreitenbach<br />
to Mariastein. Continuing straight<br />
on we come to Breitenbach after a few wonderfully<br />
hilly roads and soon get to Reintalersee and<br />
Krummsee. After a short descent we get to the little<br />
village of Kramsach and to Rattenberg, the smallest<br />
town in Austria. On the Inn Cycle Trail we will<br />
hopefully get a tail-wind on the way to Wörgl, from<br />
where we return to Hopfgarten via Bruckhäusl.<br />

Going around the ski area in Kitzbühel is suitable<br />
for fitness fiends as well as leisure cyclists. At Pass<br />
Thurn you can save a full 580 metres altitude by<br />
taking the Panoramabahn Kitzbüheler Alpen. In any<br />
event we all get to enjoy the stunning panorama of<br />
the Hohe Tauern. With this 2000 metre mountain<br />
we reach the highest elevation of the tour – it‘s<br />
now 29 kilometres uphill. Pure enjoyment! From<br />
Stangenjoch a 3.5 kilometre single trail section<br />

Hans-Peter Obwaller covered the 900 metres altitude<br />
to the Hahnenkamm in 36 minutes. If you are<br />
still planning on cycling to Pengelstein then you<br />
ought to take the somewhat more easy climb via<br />
the hermitage. Joking apart – if you have climbed<br />
the Hahnenkamm first, then you’ve already managed<br />
the toughest climb. You should definitely take<br />
a break at the start house of the most spectacular<br />
ski run in the world. There is also the option of<br />
'conquering' the Hahnenkamm on the gondola.<br />

On the King of the Mountains stage of the Tour of<br />
Austria the international cycling pros find the Kitzbüheler<br />
Horn a challenge. It does happen - a really<br />
fit top rider does have to get off their bike. We take<br />
things a bit easier, so as to have enough energy<br />
for the 22.3% Knödelfleischgraben before reaching<br />
our destination - Alpenhaus. Anyone who has<br />
something left in the tank can tackle the last few<br />
kilometres to the summit. At the summit we are<br />
rewarded with a sensational 360° panorama view.<br />
Take care on the descent! Stop every now and then<br />
so your rims don’t overheat.<br />

44th Road Masters Championships & Masters <strong>Cycling</strong> Classic<br />
In the holiday region Kitzbüheler Alpen St. Johann<br />
in Tirol in summer everything revolves around bikes<br />
and that isn‘t a recent phenomenon! It’s no<br />
wonder that the Road Masters Championships<br />
is taking place for the 44th time. From 25.08 to<br />
01.09.12 the 'Who’ s Who' of the former elite of<br />
cycling meet. Some 3500 participants from 52<br />
nations are expected at this cycling festival for<br />
professional and leisure cyclists. Powerfully pedalling<br />
together - 'hobnobbing' so to speak with the<br />
champions of years ago. The race on a 40 km road<br />
circuit is the biggest cycling event in the world.<br />
There are tactics galore at the World<br />
Masters <strong>Cycling</strong> Classic. As part of this event only<br />
riders who hold licences can head to the start of<br />
this mountain route beneath the Wilder Kaiser. A<br />
genuine festival for all fans of cycling– to spectate,<br />
share in the thrills and cheer on! Away from the<br />
exciting race there are things to do too. Every evening<br />
in the town of St. Johann in Tirol the superbly<br />
staged and atmospheric prize presentation takes<br />
place. An entertaining programme of events with<br />
live music etc. is also organised.<br />
