Project description:

The tourism association “Mühlviertler Alm Freistadt” looks after 32 communities – including Alberndorf and Gallneukirchen. In cooperation with the ALLEGRA Team in Austria A new action plan for cycling in the future was developed.

In spring 2021, we were able to hold several workshops with important stakeholders to subsequently develop a master plan for the Mühlviertel. Together with mountain bikers, hunters, foresters, riders and companies from the 32 TVB communities, we analyzed the potential of BikeSPort in the Mühlviertler Alm Freistadt tourism association area. This sport as a form of exercise has both opportunities and risks that need to be recognized as best as possible within the framework of the workshops and beyond and used positively. Our Project Manager Dominik was also out and about in the field to get an overview of the existing network of paths and to identify potential.

In order to develop a coherent mountain bike offer that is in keeping with the spirit of the times and adapted to the region, the results of the potential analysis and a derived catalogue of measures were recently presented to all TVB communities and the associated local MTB experts at three evening events.

“We have set ourselves the long-term goal of creating an attractive mountain bike offer for guests and locals, in the area of built routes and comprehensive circular tours, in coordination with landowners, hunting, forestry, equestrian associations and agriculture!”, says Stefan Wunderle, Managing Director of the Mühlviertler Alm Freistadt Tourism Association.
