For nature lovers and endurance runners

From the start at the Irdning leisure center, the route initially leads straight to the Enns on gravel paths. Turn right there and follow the course of the river - partly through shady avenues - to Wörschach-Schwefelbad. Turn right at the bridge and continue along the road towards Ketten (Aigen), past the barracks.

In Ketten, keep right again at the Zechmann inn and walk leisurely past the campsite and the idyllic Putterersee lake. You return to Irdning through Schlattham, pass the sculpture park and finally reach the leisure center again.

The predominantly asphalted route offers a varied mix of proximity to the river, views and charming villages - ideal for a longer run in the Enns Valley.

Take the train to “Stainach-Irdning” and then the 940/941 bus to “Irdning Abzweigung Donnersabch” or join the run directly at the rear exit of the station.
