Southern Styria – based in one hotel

If locals of a country holiday in a region, then it must be a great destination, right? Southern Styria just one of those places in Austria! Our tour based in one hotel through this special region below Graz combines great views, varied activities and numerous hours of sunshine. One thing needs to be emphasised again: Southern Styria is widely known for its delicious cuisine - this is included in the trip in the form of a tasty menu half board.

Details of the cycling tour

The starting point of the tour is the enchanting municipality of Mureck, surrounded by idyllic nature. Use the breaks to take a walk through the old town or to the unique ship mill. The concept of the tour based in one hotel is actually quite simple: one accommodation serves as a "base station" from which day cycling tours lead.

Don't forget your swimwear, because a day at the thermal baths is on the tour's agenda, as well as visits to one of the excellent wineries and a pumpkin seed oil mill. On day 4, you will cross the border into Slovenia in a detour, where great views and cultural impressions await you.

Highlights of the cyclin tour through South Styria with Eurobike

• The thermal baths in Bad Radkersburg: Sauna, jacuzzi or slides - the Park Thermal Baths offer plenty of relaxation, but also numerous attractions. Enjoy the soothing effect of the regional thermal springs!
• Magnificent views in the South Styrian Wine Route: Admittedly - vineyards mean sometimes hilly tours, but also grandiose views. And you can hardly get enough of them in Southern Styria. The award-winning wine, the regional delicacies and above all the warm hospitality of the people do the rest.
• Tasting of the famous pumpkin seed oil: It is probably Styria's most famous export: pumpkin seed oil. The so-called "black gold" with the characteristic nutty taste. The included visit to an oil mill is of course accompanied by a tasting.
• The Schlossberg with clock tower in Graz: The Styrian capital is certainly one of the most charming cities in Austria. The southern atmosphere, great gastronomy and the beautiful old town - what more could you want? Enjoy the view from one of the city's "rooftop" bars, such as Area 5. This rather studenty eatery is located on Jakominiplatz and, in addition to said panaromas, also offers the concept of the ‘Bausatz-Lokal’, which is an interesting change from the quaint and cosy ‘Buschenschenken’.
