Forest, meadows, water, (high) valleys, chapels and churches, villages, climbs, descents, asphalt, gravel. All this on this beautiful tour between St. Georgen and Ybbsitz.

There's always something going on on this loop: first a three-kilometre climb to the large Kripp, then a short, steep descent with a small counter-climb into the Prolling high valley. Here you can enjoy the very quiet road away from the hustle and bustle and cycle slightly undulating to descending towards Ybbsitz, which you reach after a short rapid descent. It's worth stopping at the FeRRUM museum and one of the nice cafés.

Cycle along the small Ybbstal cycle path towards Waidhofen until you briefly cross the large Ybbstal cycle path after Gstadt. However, you soon leave this again on the left and cycle uphill to the Pechtholzkapelle chapel - small and idyllically situated in the forest, the ascent is initially rhythmic, later briefly steep and over gravel.

After a short descent and another short, steep counter-climb, you come back downhill into the Prolling high valley and ride in the opposite direction to the previous route via the large Kripp - this time up the steep part - back to St. Georgen am Reith.
