En bici de Bad Ischl a Ebensee

Looking for a scenic spin in Austria’s Salzkammergut region? Hop on your bike in Bad Ischl, a famed spa town known for its imperial history (Emperor Franz Joseph loved it here!), charming riverside cafés, and historic architecture. From here, you’ll roll north for just over 18 km, mostly along gentle and quiet paths, with about 160 meters of climbing—not too tough, just enough to make you feel accomplished.

The route is mostly paved and smooth, winding through a beautiful mix of riverside stretches, forested sections, and classic Austrian villages. You’ll enjoy tranquil paths hugging the Traun River, a real treat for nature lovers.

Your ride wraps up in Ebensee, nestled at the southern end of Traunsee lake and once a center for salt production—make sure to take in the lake views and perhaps reward yourself with a lakeside coffee. Whether you’re after history, scenery, or just a pleasant ride, this route has a bit of everything!
