Karleitenweg

You start your hike directly at the Optimamed health resort Oberzeiring and walk along the main road to the new middle school Oberzeiring. There, turn left into Kalvarienbergstraße and follow the path towards the Hoanzl snack station. However, follow the signs no. 6, as you have to turn left just before the Hoanzl. Now walk from farm to farm (from Taurer to Kobald and on to Tatscher). You come to a paved road again (the Höhenstraße - it leads to the Tauernwindpark Oberzeiring), which you can walk down to the main road. From there, walk along the main road to Oberzeiring. After the Sprinz riding stables, you can also follow the signs no. 10 so that you don't have to walk directly on the main road.

Basic rules for hikers in the Pölstal...

Check your personal condition before every mountain tour and estimate your strength correctly. The length of your tour will depend on this. Plan each tour carefully. Pay close attention to the necessary equipment, make sure you have enough provisions and check the local weather forecast. Inform acquaintances about your hiking destination, as well as the planned return time, if necessary. Always stay on the marked trails. Always close fences and pasture gates. Watch out for falling rocks and do not kick any rocks yourself. Doing so will endanger other hikers. In case of bad weather, sudden indisposition or other difficulties, do not take risks and turn back in time. Avoid approaching wild animals. - Observe from a distance. Keep dogs on a leash. Use designated parking areas, please do not block access roads, and observe local driving restrictions.
