Kornock Flowtrail

Open from 3rd July 2021!

The panorama on this varied flow trail is really something special. Insights and views of the Styrian and Carinthian Nockberge mountains and the blue, turquoise, grey or green glittering Turracher See alternate with each other. The trail surface, which changes several times during the course of the trail, provides interesting insights into the locally different rock and soil conditions.

Description: At first, the trail is about 1km long and leads down the Kornockpiste on lower riparian slopes and an 80 to 120cm wide trail to the Schafalmbahn mountain station. For those who are not yet technically proficient, the bike guides should first practice the correct trail technique in the valley.

Shortly below the Schafalmbahn, the roller coaster ride starts over rolling or jumping waves, fun residential curves, footbridges, bridges and a small curve carousel. Shortly before the Almstube you have to pedal uphill for a short time. Again and again there are resting places with great views. We wish you lots of fun!

Length: approx. 6.0 km
Vertical meters: 350 hm
Average gradient: 10 to 11% in the first third; 6 to 8% in the remaining part.
Difficulty: easy (blue) with key points for beginners in the summit area and in the middle section of the trail above the Almstube. The section below the Almstube was kept easy to very easy.

Ground: Built as close to nature as possible with local earth and stones. Only where necessary due to wet spots, nature conservation or bog crossings, imported material and footbridges mixed with natural material are used.
