Overview

About this route

The Sölkpass is a quiet but steep option to cross the main ridge of the Styrian Alps. The route starts in Rottenmann on the Murtal federal road, goes over the Sölkpass (1800m) and through St. Nikolai and the Sölktal down to Gröbming in the Ennstal. Place names like 'Fleiß' and 'Au' are silent witnesses to the difficulty of this route. Even in mid-summer, it can be quite cold up top, and at times there are cows on the road during the descent. Ridden in the summer of 1993 on a mountain bike.
