This is a moderately difficult hike that leads through the nature of the Murau region.

Far away from the main road, this tour leads from Baierdorf to Ausgustinerbründl. Most of the route leads on a forest road through the forest to the destination. The picturesque landscape backdrops can therefore be enjoyed in peace and to the fullest.
