The tour starts in the center of Pischelsdorf am Kulm at the elementary school.
We leave the village and cycle along the Kulmstraße towards Rohrbach am Kulm
Steady ascent until we reach the Kulmkeltendorf - well worth a visit
Then we continue along the Kulmstraße to the Steirischer Schnitzelwirt (open on Saturdays and Sundays) - finally done and a well-deserved break.
After an extensive refreshment, we return to the starting point.
