2 Rad Grill-Route in the LACTOSAN Sports Arena

A beautiful mountain and e-bike tour with cozy rest stops, not far from Kapfenberg’s city center. The tour can also be combined with the Pötschen and Gemysag MTB tour, extending the route to 35 km.

We start at Bauernhof Url in Diemlach on Gustav-Kramer-Straße. The turnoff to the 2-Wheel Grill Route is located directly on the R5 Mürztal Cycling Path. After a challenging ascent, we reach Prieselbauer after 5 kilometers, and after approximately 6 kilometers, the route descends past Gasthaus Bergerbauer until it ends at the motorway roundabout, where riders can rejoin the R5 Mürztal Cycling Path.

Perched high above Kapfenberg, directly along the route, is the rustic Prieselbauer rest stop. Here, visitors can enjoy the cozy atmosphere in the beer garden or on the sun terrace, with a panoramic view of the Mürztal valley and the Hochschwab mountain range. The inn is located directly on the Wulfing Circular Hiking Trail. A large playground and a variety of animals make it a great experience for the whole family.

We start the tour at Gehöft Url on Gustav-Kramer-Straße at the route sign. From there, we continue towards Jagaeck, then onward towards the Prieselbauer rest stop. However, we pass by the inn and follow the road towards Bergerbauer until we reach the first crossroads. We then continue straight towards Bergerbauer and Krottendorf.

A visit to Oberkapfenberg Castle is also highly recommended. The multimedia experience exhibition takes visitors on a virtual journey through time, exploring the world of Crusaders and alchemists. A breathtaking highlight is the free-flight demonstration of falcons, eagles, and other birds of prey, showcasing their incredible skills up close. The castle’s modern design and spacious, species-appropriate aviaries make the castle falconry a must-visit destination.

From Prieselbauer, we continue to Gasthof Bergerbauer, a certified "Good Styrian Inn" and family-friendly establishment, offering culinary highlights.

After a cycling tour, a visit to Badewonne Kapfenberg is highly recommended. The 200 m² adventure and wellness pool, heated to 32°C, provides an outstanding water experience with massage jets, whirl loungers, a waterfall, a swinging grotto, and fountains.

For relaxation, guests can enjoy 120 comfortable loungers and a secluded quiet area. A 62-meter indoor/outdoor adventure slide is a highlight for children and the young at heart. Athletes can dive into the 25-meter sports pool to train their bodies and improve fitness.

After a long workday or an intense workout, visitors can unwind in the sauna area or solarium. Self-service dining is available, and the facility ensures barrier-free access for people with disabilities along with attractive, family-friendly admission prices.

 

Kapfenberg is nestled in a stunning natural landscape and has also made a name for itself as an international sports and training city. Despite its dynamic development, Kapfenberg places great importance on maintaining a harmonious balance between life and work in an intact environment.

The 2-Rad Grill Route in the LACTOSAN Sports Arena offers a great opportunity to experience the beautiful surrounding landscape.
