Trans National Park - Stage 5
4580 Windischgarsten

Description: Please note that the Trans National Park is only signposted in one direction: from Steyr to Johnsbach.
Description: Washed out sections of the route - forest road before Sommerauer Bauer (Krautgraben - Gams) has not yet been repaired due to the heavy rainfall event (September 2024). Please adapt your driving style or push your bike.
More information about the closure and detour can be found here.
A short stage from Palfau via Gams to Mooslandl: time to relax and visit the Nothklamm, which is well worth seeing.
Charging stations along the stage:
Gams bei Hieflau: Forstauer's Brauhaus Gesäuse (free when consumed; bring your own charger)
Refreshments:
Forstauer's Brewery Gesäuse in Gams near Hieflau
The first section of this stage once again promises solitude: forest roads take you through the sleepy, wooded mountains above the deeply cut Salza to the Köpplalm, before you then descend over steep forest roads (caution, partly loose gravel) down into the Krautgraben. If the stage is not demanding enough for you, you have the opportunity to explore part of the designated mountain bike route "Wildalpen". But watch out: along the stage of the Trans National Park described here, you will soon reach a highlight of the day, the Nothklamm. Although you drive the gorge with your bike via a path that is indirectly guided in the gorge bottom - a visit to the gorge via the footpath (entry fee) is also absolutely recommended. Then the route takes you through the pretty village of Gams, before you reach your stage destination Mooslandl via the Radstatthöhe.
