When rivers were the easiest way to travel, traders followed the Mur River Valley on their way south from Salzburg through Styria to the Slovenian border. On this self-guided Austria cycling tour, you will bike along the Mur Cycle Path, the most diverse scenic river bike route in the Alps, following the same river course, through alpine landscapes and unspoiled nature. The Styrian Alps are the backdrop, and the soundtrack of more than 200 species of birds makes this a paradise for cycling and nature lovers. Contrasted with the stunning nature and wildlife, your tour through Graz, the beautiful and historic UNESCO World Heritage capital of Styria, will be infused with the wisdom and relics of old and the vibrancy of youth, thanks to the many universities there. Your bike tour ends in the fertile plains of Southern Styria, often called Austria's Tuscany, where rolling vineyards rival those of Italy. Be sure to relax in the famous thermal spas of Bad Radkersburg, a highlight of this Austria cycling holiday.
