Chapel on the Mur Cycle Path

Highlight • Religious Site

A super nice tour, lots of asphalt roads, but also gravel paths, partly along the Mur, great views, beautiful towns, good food, great lakes and ponds, a short ride on the Mur ferry (free), highly recommended

Very cool place with - of course - casual view. Truly a wonderful highlight on the R2.

Lake Röck

Highlight • Lake

The water in the bathing lake is very clean and there is enough natural shade. Unfortunately, in some places there are very sharp water plants that scratch the skin on your legs when you swim.

Mureck Ship Mill

Highlight • Monument

In the middle of the beautifully wild Mur meadows is the only floating, still functional mill in Europe. The ship mill was built in 1997 based on historical models.
