Mur Cycle Path Left Bank (AT)

Murradweg – linkes Ufer (AT)

A collection of 12 cycling routes.

Overview

About this collection

This collection compiles left-bank sections of the Mur bike path (R2) in Austria. You mostly cycle on paved bike paths and quiet side roads, with short gravel and track passages. Ideal for trekking bikes, touring bikes, and e-bikes; usually also manageable with narrower tires.

The route follows the Mur closely through alpine valleys to the Styrian hills—mostly pleasantly flat, with occasional short undulations. Along the way, you’ll find floodplains, bridges, and lively towns (including Graz), as well as many spots for breaks by the water.

Signage is generally very good (R2). A GPX file helps with riverbank changes and detours. After rain, gravel sections can be softer; observe local notices during high water. Best time: spring to autumn. Perfect for leisure cycling, day stages, and relaxed multi-day tours along the Mur.
