12 - Krimmler Waterfalls
Road biking
· Kufsteinerland
This day tour through the Krimmltal, Gerlostal and Zillertal valleys packs a punch and puts your endurance and muscles to the test. The tour is recommendable in any case during the week, since the traffic on weekends is partly very heavy.

Kufsteinerland is far behind you in Kitzbühel, with the route now proceeding from Jochberg to Pass Thurn. The route goes downhill fast to Mittersill, then flattens out until the woodlands in Pinzgau. A ride where you can’t really get into a rhythm starts here on the old Gerlosstraße. The first kilometres tickle your muscles with a gradient of 8.5 %. Then follow longer sections with 12.5 % and ascents with 17 %. The reservoir finally heralds a bit of relaxation for your muscles. On the rapid descent to the Zillertal valley don’t be distracted by the views to the snow-covered 3,000-metre peaks. Back in the valley you can wind down on the 50 kilometres from Zell am Ziller to Kufsteinerland.
