Brief description
The Schneeberg is not only the highest mountain in Lower Austria, it also dominates the - nomen est omen - Schneeberg route, although the route does not lead directly up. Attractive route with a great alpine pasture section against the backdrop of the Schneeberg.
Description
Puchberg - Ödenhof - Arbestal - Puchberg - Schneebergdörfl - Unternberg - Haltberghof - Puchberg
The starting point Puchberg am Schneeberg is one of the most beautifully located municipalities in Lower Austria, the Schneeberg itself is the "local mountain of the Viennese" par excellence. The MTB route impresses especially with the scenic views along the northeast escarpments of the Schneeberg and is particularly charming at the beginning of May during the fruit tree blossom season in the Puchberg basin. The route is half asphalt and half forest/gravel paths with tough climbs and fast descents.

Route description Schneeberg route
From Puchberg at 576m, you first follow the Sierning valley southeast, then turn to the first ascent towards Hauslitzsattel 830m. This is followed by a fast descent through the Hengst valley. On the way to Schneebergdörfl 700m, you have the opportunity to take a closer look at the numerous steep ski descents from the Schneeberg. The second, somewhat longer ascent takes us to Maumauwiese 990m, where the mountain inn invites you to refresh yourself! Then a short climb to the highest point of the route and a fast forest road descent along the Schoberbach back to the starting point in Puchberg.
