Panorama Nova Mountain Biking Trail
Mountain bike fun high above the Goiserertal
A bike tour to the Predigstuhl high-altitude cross-country ski trail in Bad Goisern is an excellent fitness workout that also offers you breathtaking views of the mountains. The trail is located at an altitude of 1000-1200 meters and is therefore snow-sure, ideal for optimizing the mountain bike season.
High above Bad Goisern, you can reach the scenic highlights of an impressive mountain world. Near the Predigtstuhl, the route reaches about 1,000 meters above sea level. After a rapid descent, nothing stands in the way of the finish in Bad Goisern.
The Panorama Nova Route is summarized, but can be ridden in different variants. The tour is not too difficult to master, but offers wonderful views of the Dachstein glacier and Lake Hallstatt. We start at the Bad Goisern tourist information office, at the Moserwirt inn we drive uphill along Josef-Putz-Straße/Lasern Straße to the Berghof Predigstuhl car park. At the lower car park, we keep to the right on Rehmöserstraße for about 3 km until we reach the junction with the wider gravel road coming from the Hütteneckalm. There we drive downhill to the right for about 1 km and be careful not to overlook the turnoff. There we have the alternative either downhill (soon asphalt) to St. Agatha and turn right next to the B 145 in Stambach through the underpass and so back to Bad Goisern, or we take the beautiful forest road sharply left (division signposting Panorama Nova Route 1 and 2). A detour to the Hütteneckalm is worthwhile. The beautiful forest path (cross-country ski trail in winter) offers a wonderful panorama of the Dachstein glacier and Lake Hallstatt and we then come back to the parking lot at the Berghof Predigstuhl, where we drove up. The way back leads next to the game gate on the asphalt road immediately downhill to Bad Goisern via Lasern, as on the ascent.
