MTB Tour Hintersteiner See Lake-Kaiseralm Circuit

“Mountain bike trail no. 338” starts at Scheffau’s Community Hall/Church (car park). You bike through the Sonnwies district to the Café Rosemarie and then uphill to the Obholzhof farm and Hochegg mountain. You turn right and head downhill to the Hintersteiner See lake. You turn left at the Seestüberl car park and bike alongside the lake to the Pension Maier. The same road takes you back to the Seestüberl restaurant. The route continues via Bärnstatt to the Schiesslinghöfe and uphill to the Kaiseralm mountain hut. It’s then downhill (in parts very steep - you’ll have to push your bike) till you reach the Jägerwirt inn via the Wegscheid-Niederalm mountain hut. From there you take the road back to the village.
