This challenging bike tour leads from Niederrasen via Olang to Furkel Pass, rewarding riders with magnificent mountain views.

We start this tour in Niederrasen and it first takes us out of the valley to Neunhäusern, where we then turn left towards Niederolang. We then continue past the church to the hamlet of Mühlbach and on to Gassl, where the valley station of the Olang cable car is located. This is where the ascent to the Furkel Pass at 1,789 metres above sea level begins. We initially ride along a gravel road until we turn onto the paved Furkelstraße, which then leads us to our destination. Once we reach the pass, we can enjoy the marvellous view of the surrounding mountains before returning to Niederrasen along the same route.
