We start at Leoben's main square and follow the Murradweg R2, in the direction of St. Michael. Through the Schwammerlturm and over the Waasen bridge we turn left onto the Mareckkai. Along the Mur, this leads us in the direction of the district of Göss. On a level road the Murradweg leads into the Schladnitzgraben and further between the edge of the forest and the S 6, in the direction of the 18er Graben. After a short ascent, we reach St. Michael. At the traffic circle we now follow the R15 to Traboch and change in the center of Traboch to the R38a. After a slight ascent we reach the Trabochersee, a popular recreational area.... After we have cycled past the lake on the left, we go back on the other side for about 200 meters before we turn left in the direction of Hessenberg. For this we have to cross the B115. On a gently ascending side road we enjoy a magnificent panorama with the Reiting massif as an eye-catcher. After reaching the highest point, we descend through a settlement area to St. Peter Freienstein and to the R38, back to Leoben. First along the imposing factory plant, it then goes through the district of Waasen, back to the starting point of our round, on the main square

The route is partly on public roads - therefore a roadworthy bike should be used.

Proper planning is a must before any tour.
