Road Bike & Gravel Bike Weekend @AVIVA – Velorama Mühlviertel
Austria without Alpine passes? It’s still worth it… and how!
Anyone who thinks you can only get that true road bike experience in the Alps hasn’t yet explored the Mühlviertel. The gently rolling yet challenging landscape north of the Danube offers thrilling athletic challenges, stunning nature, and quiet roads… perfect for your road bike or gravel bike weekend @AVIVA. The Mühlviertel, part of the Bohemian Massif with its granite and gneiss highlands, offers ideal conditions for demanding rides: steady ups and downs, hardly any flat sections, and varied routes with a surprising amount of elevation gain. Deep valleys, sweeping views, and light traffic make every ride a special experience.
To the north, you’ll reach the Czech Republic with the impressive Moldau Reservoir… perfect for longer tours and true highlights on two wheels.
A road bike tour in the Mühlviertel is more than just training: it’s a flow experience combining speed, technique, and nature. That’s exactly what makes this road bike weekend at AVIVA so special… ideal for anyone who loves athletic challenges and is looking for an active cycling vacation.
