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

This tour takes us from Mitterolang up to the Furkel Pass, covering an altitude difference of approx. 750 metres and a distance of 11 km to our destination. The route first takes us past Mühlbach and then past Gassl, where the valley station of the Olang cable car is located. This is where the ascent to the 1,789 m high pass begins. We initially cycle on a paved road until we turn off onto the Furkelstraße, where the last section to our destination begins. Once we reach the pass, we can enjoy the marvellous view of the surrounding mountains before returning to Mitterolang along the same route.
