The ride

From Hochegg, this 90.0 km loop rolls out past the Schwarza river and along the Werkskanal canal before meeting the Kehrbach and Pitten rivers. Castles stack up along the way: Schloss Pitten, Schloss Schleinz and Schloss Weisspriach, then the Ruine Thernberg. The route is fully paved, with 1724 m of climbing, and it brings you back to Hochegg.
