Tour description:

Tourist Information in Ruhpolding (Hauptstraße 60) - Fuxwagner Chapel - Rauschberg - Taubensee - Fahrriedsboden Chapel - Schmelz - Tourist Information Inzell (Rathausplatz 5) The stage begins in Ruhpolding with a short stretch through town, along the main road to rural meadows and settlements. There is the small Fuxwagner chapel. The path continues along an idyllic river to the foot of the Rauschberg, with a view of the Rauschbergbahn. From there you can get to the Taubensee, which is ideal for the first snack break with its breathtaking atmosphere. After a short, steeper section in the forest, the stage continues along the Rauschberg over small forest paths. Shortly before the "descent" towards Inzell there is a beautiful small chapel in the middle of the forest, which in turn is very suitable for a short rest. Then it goes over small paths, back in the valley, over meadow paths to the village of Inzell. Special tip: These stages connect the two Winter World Cup locations. The best biathletes and speed skaters meet every year in the Chiemgau Arena in Ruhpolding and in the Max Aicher Arena in Inzell. Both competition sites can be visited.
