The best time of year to cycle the Tauern Cycle Trail depends on your personal preferences. In general, the Tauern Cycle Trail is best ridden from April to September. During these months, the days are longer, the temperatures are pleasant and the landscapes are green and in bloom.
The months of May to June offer mild temperatures and blooming nature, which makes the ride particularly attractive. In summer (July to August), however, temperatures can get quite warm, especially at lower altitudes, so cyclists should be prepared to carry enough water and protect themselves from the sun.
Autumn (September to October) is also a good option, as the temperatures are milder and the autumn colours of the leaves provide a picturesque backdrop. However, it can get a little chilly at this time of year, especially at higher altitudes, so cyclists should bring warm clothing.
