Steinplan - Knittelfeld's local mountain

Open
This e-bike tour from Knittelfeld in the Murtal adventure region in Styria is a successful mix of scenic attractions, a good place to stop for refreshments and a summit at 1670 metres above sea level with great views.
We cycle up the 1670 m high panoramic and local mountain of Knittelfeld via Kleinlobming. A softly shaped landscape with alternating forest and meadow areas and the houses and farms embedded in them is perfect for this e-bike tour. The view from the summit is impressive. We can see the Judenburg-Knittelfeld basin in the Murtal  region in Styria with the surrounding mountains of the Seetal, Wölz and Seckau Alps all the way to the Graz and Leibnitz basins.
