Wild meadow way, Strallegg
Open
The hiking trail leads you from Strallegg to a magnificent vantage point in Joglland, to the Wildwiese. The way home then leads past the so-called "dead man".
The tour to the Wildwiese starts in the sunny village of Strallegg, which is also a member of the Styrian Flower Route. In 1984 Strallegg was elected "Most beautiful flower village of Styria", since then also several times the most beautiful mountain village of Styria. From there you hike to the Wildwiese at an altitude of about 1254 meters. An ascent of the 36-meter-high Wildwiesenwarte is mandatory if you want to enjoy the magnificent view of Joglland and eastern Styria. On nice days, the view even reaches as far as Hungary. Afterwards it goes over the "dead man" back to Strallegg.
On the Wildwiese there is also a great opportunity for refreshment with traditional culinary delicacies with the Wildwiesenhütte. A playground and a small chapel also invite you to linger.
