The ride

Roll out of Sittersdorf/Žitara vas and let the ride unfold: past the Völkermarkter Stausee lake, then along the Drau river and the Gurk river. Two castles follow, Schloss Frankenstein and Schloß Neudenstein, before Schloss Wasserhofen sends you homeward. With 61.6 km and 996 m of climbing ahead, the mix of paved and unpaved keeps things varied.
