Embarrassing: confusion over a map of the cycling race

A few mistakes have crept into the map labeling, which are met with little understanding by those familiar with the area. Nobody can explain how this could have happened.(Bild: zVg)

A cycling race on Lake Klopeiner See is intended to promote the region beyond its borders. But the maps printed for the event with the circuits are causing head-shaking - beyond the borders.

The time has come this weekend: the Austrian road race championships for young cyclists are taking place on Lake Klopein. Participants from abroad are also expected to take part in this major sporting event. They will start on two different courses, between Lake Klopein and Stein and on Lake Turnersee. However, the specially produced maps showing the route are causing confusion for some locals.
