Cycle routes in Kufstein – nature, panoramic views & cycling comfort
Kufstein is a cyclist’s paradise: riverside paths along the Inn, lakeside loops with views of the mountains, and short panoramic climbs offering views of the fortress. The variety is particularly appealing – from family-friendly routes along the Inn to leisurely rides into neighbouring Bavaria. Along the way, forests, moors and lakes provide plenty of opportunities for a quick break.

The Inn Valley Cycle Route is one of the most beautiful riverside cycle routes in Europe, linking three countries over a distance of more than 500 kilometres. In the Kufsteinerland region, it winds its way through floodplain landscapes, past floral paradises, cultural sites and cosy places to stop for a bite to eat. It is an ideal route for leisure cyclists and e-bike riders who want to combine nature and culture.
