SÜDSTEIERMARK – ALWAYS AN ADVENTURE

Südsteiermark or South Styria is an absolute hidden Austrian gem and a golden tip we give to cyclists: small, fine and yet so versatile and interesting. The tours run in all directions. From delightful tours for enjoyers through the vineyards through day trips in the Styrian volcano country to trips in the West Styrian mountain country with many altitude meters.

Everything is there to make it a great cycling vacation. The mild climate provides Mediterranean flair from March to November.

Thus, after a day on the bike, delicious food is optimally provided. Top wines, pumpkin seed oil or crispy fried chicken, backhendl, are just a few examples of Styrian specialties. Hotel Weinlandhof with its ideal location is quasi predestined for trips to the Styrian volcano country or with more altimeters in the West Styrian mountain country. Your cycling expert is Thomas. The host and cyclist is an old hand and will show you the most beautiful roads, hidden corners and charming places to eat and drink that you will remember for a long time.
