Activities

A comfortable bike tour around Marktoberdorf and its villages: 34 km, mostly on paved roads and with only small height differentials in between. But there is much to see: the impressive baroque-church in Bertholdshofen, the rural atmosphere in Sulzschneid, adventurous paths away from the main roads and one of the most modern breweries in the Allgäu – be ready to be surprised.

This tour can be started in two different ways: comfortable or exhausting! The total distance of 24,9km is manageable and there is only 70m in total altitude. The scenery of the Geltnach-valley from Altdorf, Bertoldshofen to Rieder and back to Marktoberdorf invites both recreational and racing cyclists – hop on! 

Starting from Marktoberdorf towards Rieder, Sulzschneid, Lengenwang, Wald and back through Leuterschach, you will always be accompanied by the impressive mountainview. It does go up and down on that 27,6km trail and you have to manage 220m in altitude. The trail runs on paved roads and is also convenient for racing-cycles. But please don’t forget: put your heads up and enjoy the mountainview.

Stamina needed – as the tour has a length of 76,5km. It runs along two former rail-tracks – the Sachsenrieder Bähnles and the Lechbrucker Rutsche. On 1st of July 1899 the first train took its journey towards Lechbruck! Today those rail tracks have been transformed into gorgeous bicycle tracks. The tour can be split into different stages and offers several connections to other bicycle-tours.

If you want to explore the full diversity of the Ostallgäu, the "Schlosspark"-tour is your choice. With a total length of 218,5 km this tour leads from King Ludwigs Castle to the home of famous priest Kneipp in Bad Wörishofen. The German Cycling Association has rewarded this tour with the best rating of five stars.

Helpful information about the tour, parking lots, service stations for bicycles and many more can be acquired at our tourism info – as well as free cycling maps. The Allgäu Shuttle will transport your luggage if needed – so you can enjoy an untroubled journey.
