In the Km 8 to the Breitlahner Hutte the little road climbed to 1257m, giving plenty of riding. At the Hutte (the appearance of which was rather that of a hotel), the road ceased and a well-meaning Austrian walker tried to persuade us to leave our cycles there and spend the day walking on routes which he recommended. In this area, taking cycles on paths seems to be absurd and ’just not done'.
