Boundless cycling along the tracks of the Lafnitz River all the way to the Hungarian border or even make a detour to nearby St. Gotthard in Hungary. Starting from Fürstenfeld, follow the R8 to Fritz Mühle in Ruderdorf. There they join the Lafnitztalradweg (B75) and experience the natural spectacle of the Lafnitz. In Heiligenkreuz we leave the B75 on the return path and follow the R65 to the Königsdorf turnoff. A detour to the Uhudlerviertel in Eltendorf (please note the opening hours) is always worthwhile. You can also cool off at the natural bathing lake in Königsdorf. After the end of Königsdorf we turn right and follow the B713 for a few meters until we meet the B734. Before the Dobersdorfer Mühle we follow the FF14 to the left until we finally join the R12 after the mill which brings us back to Fürstenfeld.

For water rats we recommend the natural bathing pond in Königsdorf
