Experience a challenging hike to the Kreuzbergwarte, enjoy the fantastic view and the beautiful landscape on the circular hiking trail.

The tour begins at the Hallstattzeitliches Museum Großklein and initially leads towards Heimschuh. The trail runs through the village and along picturesque municipal paths over the Windischgraben towards Hammerkogel. At Kröllweber in Nestelberg, the trail turns towards Gatschnig. Shortly before the Kreuzbergwarte (which is worth a short detour), it passes the Maier winery and descends along forest and community paths to the Skringer wine tavern. Finally, it returns via the Lassenberg to the starting point of the hike.
