Those who regularly sit in the saddle will also find 30 to 50 kilometres on rather flat routes pleasant. With an e-bike, 30 to 60 kilometres are often easily achievable without losing any of the enjoyment. More important than the pure distance are the metres in altitude: Longer climbs make a tour noticeably more challenging. Many people therefore find two to four hours, including breaks, to be a good framework - enough exercise, plenty of nature and a pace that leaves room to take a deep breath. [ What makes the pleasure cycle trails in 360° Alpenland special? ](#ttgNCECollapse447610) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is the interplay of landscapes in a small space: flat river valleys along the Enns and Steyr rivers, the green expanse around Bad Hall and the view across to the mountains between Pyhrn and Priel. This proximity of water, rolling hills and alpine scenery makes every tour varied - without long journeys. You don't just travel from A to B, but through the different moods of a region in the heart of Upper Austria, where the power of nature, culture and joie de vivre come together [ Are the leisure cycle routes also suitable for families and beginners? ](#ttgNCECollapse447611) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, many routes run along the rivers Enns, Krems and Steyr or through open countryside and are easy to follow. They are suitable for families with children as well as beginners or people who simply want to go at their own pace. Those looking for more of a challenge will also find suitable variants. [ Are there places to rest and pause along the routes? ](#ttgNCECollapse447612) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quiet spots by the water, shady meadows or parks like in Bad Hall open up again and again. Along the paths, benches and rest areas invite you to stop for a moment, take in the scenery and recharge your batteries. There are also cafés and restaurants along many of the routes - from small village cafés to cosy inns. These combine exercise with mindful moments - in keeping with a region that stands for authenticity and mindfulness. Breaks are a matter of course here. [ Are there round trips that lead back to the starting point? ](#ttgNCECollapse447613) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, in addition to classic routes along the rivers, there are also circular tours that start and end in the same place. This makes it easy to plan your cycling day - with a clear start, lots of impressions along the way and a harmonious return. Use the "Categories" and "Circular route" filters.
