### An overview of your cycle tour along the Enns Cycle Path
The Enns Cycle Path links alpine mountain landscapes, towns steeped in tradition and the varied river landscapes of the Enns. The route passes through the Austrian federal states of Salzburg, Styria and Upper Austria.
Many cycling tours begin in the **Radstadt** area. From there, you follow the Enns through the wide valley towards Schladming. The Dachstein massif and the peaks of the Niedere Tauern provide an impressive backdrop.
Via Gröbming and Liezen, you reach **Admont** with its famous Benedictine abbey. The Enns Cycle Route then leads through or alongside the scenically striking Gesäuse National Park. Further downstream, wooded valleys and historic towns await you. Depending on your route, you’ll cycle via Steyr to **Enns** and thus close to where the Enns flows into the Danube.
 ### Level of difficulty
The **Enns Cycle Path** is mainly of moderate to challenging difficulty:
- flat and gently undulating sections in the Enns Valley
- several uphill and downhill sections
- well-maintained cycle paths and side roads with little traffic
- paved natural and gravel paths in places
There are elevation changes to negotiate, particularly on the alpine sections and in the Gesäuse area. Some sections may be more challenging due to ascents, descents or varying surfaces.
 ### Best time of year to visit the Enns Cycle Path
The best time of year for a cycling holiday along the Enns Cycle Path is from **May to October**:
- **May and June:** flowering meadows, rivers full of water and pleasant temperatures
- **July and August:** long days and good conditions for alpine stages
- **September and October:** clear visibility, quieter paths and atmospheric autumnal landscapes
June and September often offer particularly pleasant conditions for **cycle touring**. Due to the alpine location, the weather and temperatures along the route can change rapidly. You should therefore carry rainwear and warm clothing with you, even in summer.
### Duration
Depending on the tour option you choose, your **cycling holiday on the Enns Cycle Path** will last **between 6 and 8 days**.
