Back in 2021, Maria Wilke took herself off to explore the lakes and mountains of Austria. Here’s her account of the first days adventure, along with a map and GPX file for you to take on the same ride. Why not ride this route in 2025,as an alpine road adventure
I’ve trained long und hard for this day, now it has come: The 24 hours in Kelheim were on my agenda and I was already really excited and motivated for this event since a few weeks and I was ready to give everything my mind and body were able to. Time to test myself on 2-wheels!
At some point in our lives, we all seek a challenge. Maria Wilke seeks them constantly; and so we wanted to share one of her first and most epic cycling challenges – the 24 hours of Zolder! As we enter 2025, the 700 km+ cycled by this inspiring woman, is worth revisiting, as an inspiring endurance cycling achievement.
Here’s two absolutely amazing routes from Mary Wilke, taking in this beautiful area of the Alps, close to the border between Italy and Switzerland,and with epic views of lakes and mountains. If you’re looking for a great weekend riding in the Alps, then this excursion could be the ideal mini vacation for epic bikes rides.
