The Bernhard-Fest-Trail is for experienced mountain bikers who would like to cycle through the forests of the Murau region.

Basically, the trail is a hiking trail, which has also been open to mountain bikers since 2023. In this respect, we ask you to take care so that hikers can also reach the Murauer Hütte in safety.

The trail runs from the Murauer Hütte, right through the forest to the village of Schlatting.
