With lots of fun and excitement, you will get to know one of the most diverse river cycle paths in the Alpine region on the cycling tour along the Mur for families. Magnificent natural landscapes, remote farms, picturesque villages, castles and fortresses line your route as you follow the Mur through valleys and wide basins. There is plenty of swimming fun along the way, as there are numerous bathing opportunities along the route! Railroad enthusiasts will also get their money's worth on this tour. The historic steam train of the Murtalbahn train rushes past you between Tamsweg and Unzmarkt and can be used for shortcuts or a special railroad experience. The stages of the cycling tour along the Mur for families are deliberately kept short so that they are manageable for the whole family. There are a few small climbs to contend with, but these are rewarded with wonderful descents in keeping with the motto first work, then play.
Idyllic St. Michael in Salzburg's Lungau region welcomes you to your cycling tour along the Mur for families! Surrounded by a magnificent mountain backdrop, the town will get you in the perfect mood for your cycling vacation. To recover from the exertions of the journey, take a detour to the outdoor pool. A dip in the cool water is a well-deserved way to cool off. You can find out who is the best player in the family with a game of mini golf!
The first stage of your cycling tour along the Mur for families takes you through the romantic river valley. At Unternberg, you will come across the mighty Moosham Castle, which has been used as a movie set several times. Tamsweg is the perfect place for an extensive lunch break. Take a leisurely stroll through the market square with its colorful houses. Your destination for the day, Ramingstein, lies in the border triangle of Salzburg, Styria and Carinthia. Visit Finstergrün Castle, which is situated on a steeply rising rocky outcrop above the picturesque village. Enjoy the sweeping view of the surrounding area from there.
After a hearty breakfast, get on your bike and cycle close to the river through the most densely wooded area in Styria. Wood processing and wood crafts have a long tradition in the region. In the St. Rupprecht Wood Museum, you can learn all about the fascinating raw material wood, a real experience for the whole family. Continue to the beer and wood town of Murau! On an extensive walk past imposing wooden buildings, churches worth seeing and the Mursteg footbridge, you will learn more about this town steeped in tradition.
Today, too, the cycling tour along the Mur for families awaits you with experiences for young and old. The cycle path takes you leisurely through the narrows of the Mur valley at the foot of the Niedere Tauern. The Murtalbahn train rushes past you again and again. To find out more about the historic narrow-gauge railroad, you should pay a visit to the narrow-gauge railway museum in Frojach. In the afternoon, water lovers will get their money's worth: Scheifling awaits you with a wonderful natural swimming pond with a large sunbathing lawn and a children's playground.
You continue to follow the Mur until it gets fairytale-like in St. Georgen. In the amuement park Freizeitpark Märchenwald Steiermark, not only over 130 fairytale figures, but also climbing towers, a giant slide and water games await your family. Pedal hard for the last few kilometers to Judenburg, because the next highlights await you. You can plunge into the cool water again at the adventure pool. Or you can take a walk through Judenburg and visit the highest town tower in Austria. This is home to one of the most modern planetariums in Europe.
Mainly, the cycling tour along the Mur for families takes you through densely overgrown sections of forest. Have you always wanted to visit a Formula 1 race track? Then you should take your chance and make a detour to the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg. Knittelfeld is also worth a stopover. Take a leisurely stroll through the old town and visit the railroad museum. Your stage destination of St. Michael lies in the heart of Upper Styria and is surrounded by the foothills of the Eastern Alps. Visit the Museum am Bauernhof, which tells you about the life of farmers in a 300-year-old farmhouse and presents historical tools and implements.
Get on your bike one last time and cover the last few kilometers of your cycling tour along the Mur for families. You quickly reach Leoben, the second largest city in Styria, where it is worth taking a short tour of the historic old town. Marvel at the red Hacklhaus, which has the most important baroque façade in the city. You will soon have reached your destination, Bruck an der Mur. There is plenty to discover on a walk through the historic trading town. From the Schlossberg, you have a fantastic view of the region that you have been exploring by bike over the last few days.
