Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Bad Ischl à Bad Aussee

Get ready for a beautiful ride through Austria’s Salzkammergut! Starting in Bad Ischl, a historic spa town once favored by the Habsburgs, you’ll pedal out along mostly smooth quiet roads and the occasional cycleway, winding through stunning alpine scenery. There’s a bit of a climb (you’ll gain over 750 meters!), but the views more than make up for the effort, especially as you pass lakes and patches of forest.

You’ll cover roughly 38 kilometers, mostly on paved roads (with some gravelly sections sprinkled in). Along the way, expect a mix of peaceful rural vibes and mountain backdrops. Eventually you’ll roll into Bad Aussee—a small town famously known as the geographical heart of Austria. It’s also a great place for a celebratory pastry after your ride. This route is a great pick for anyone wanting to soak up the region’s natural and cultural charm!
