Sagenstein route

Two starting points:

               1. Main Square (short-term parking zone): From the Main Square, drive along Obere Hauptstraße to the City Box (shopping center). There, turn left towards Kreisbachtal.

               2. City Park (large parking lot): From the parking lot (swimming pool), drive in the direction of the city park/music school, cross it and arrive at the back of the City Box (shopping center).

               Here the two access routes converge!

We cross the Kreisbacher Bridge and a railway crossing (Kreisbach stop) and follow Kreisbacher Straße into the Kreisbachtal. After a short ascent, we ride through a residential area and reach Schloss Kreisbach directly. We leave the castle through a (always open) large wooden gate and return onto Kreisbacher Straße, where shortly afterwards we can see the Antiques Center Renz on the left. Here we continue along Kreisbacher Straße until we reach a widening of the road. While the now narrowing road continues further into Kreisbachtal, we keep left downhill and follow the short road over a bridge. Here we follow the gravel road uphill towards Geisriegel. Then we ride between a farm and a horse paddock with an outbuilding, always further uphill, and at the upcoming intersection we turn left towards Draxelhofer Höhe. Having reached Draxelhofer Höhe, we ride along the meadow ridge towards the west (Rudolfshöhe/Ochsenburger Hut). Immediately before the forest section ahead, we turn left down onto a gravel road that continues west. Along a dilapidated farmhouse, the gravel road finally leads us to a small parking lot with an electronic barrier. Past the barrier, it goes steeply at first, then flattening, up to the Ochsenburger Hut (d’Rudi). After a possible refreshment at the hut, we ride back about 200 m and then turn right into the forest (attention: 2 barriers). We follow the forest road, which always descends towards the district of Reith. There, we ride along the Traisen River heading south (upstream) back to the starting point of the route.
