Your base camp in the heart of Carinthia’s winding roads

Where the Gail Valley meets true biker passion.

Are you ready for endless biking fun on the sunny side of the Alps? The Hotel-Pension Birkenhof in Kötschach-Mauthen is not just a place to stay – it’s the perfect starting point for tours that will set every motorcyclist’s heart racing. Whether it’s the Carinthian Lakes Tour, the legendary Großglockner or a detour to the Adriatic: from here, you’ll be riding until you’re ‘dizzy’ in no time – in the best possible way!

Why the Birkenhof is your biker hotspot in Carinthia:

• Located right at the heart of the Alps: In just two hours you can reach South Tyrol, the Großglockner or the Italian coast. The bends of the Carnic Alps are right on our doorstep
• Everything for your bike: Your machine is safe in our large bike garage. For maintenance in between rides, there’s a wash bay and a mechanics’ corner.
• Professional service: We offer a drying room for your gear, trailer parking spaces and a computer with GPS data for your next tour. Maps and insider tips are available at reception on top of that.
• Exclusive extra: As a partner of “Motorradland Kärnten”, you benefit from 3 free guided tours per week (April to October) and the handy Panorama toll ticket.

After the tour: pure relaxation

Once you’ve taken off your helmet, the feel-good programme begins:

• Cool down: Jump into our solar-heated pool and leave the dust of the road behind you.
• Wellness: Loosen up your muscles in the sauna or the infrared cabin.
• Indulgence: On our sun terrace with views over the Gail Valley, we serve you cold beer, homemade schnapps and authentic Carinthian specialities such as Gail Valley bacon.
• Motorcycle chat: Round off the day in style with a 3-course menu of your choice (on half-board) in the company of like-minded people.

Family-run, unpretentious and with a warm welcome – the Jank family looks forward to welcoming you and your bike to the Birkenhof!
