Map, elevation profile & further information

You start in the center of Filzmoos and head north. Right at the beginning, a steep asphalt road leads you up to the Kleinberg. After the last houses, the route continues on a forest road, which you follow further uphill.

After just over 2 kilometers and around 270 meters of elevation gain, you reach a junction. Here, you can optionally turn left to the Kleinbergalm, which is a good spot for a short break. The main loop, however, continues straight ahead.

From here, you ride on well-maintained forest roads in a wide loop around the wooded Wurmegg. The route is mostly slightly downhill or nearly flat, offering a nice recovery section after the first climb.

After about 7.5 kilometers, the final climb begins, leading you up to the Schwaigalm – the highest point of the tour. After a break on the sunny terrace, a fast descent takes you back down to the valley floor.

Once in the valley, head east and follow the route back to Filzmoos, returning to the starting point in the village center.
